Twitter\u2019s latest layoffs included a manager who had tweeted a photo of herself sleeping on an office floor last year as she put in long hours on a project.
\nEsther Crawford, the chief executive of Twitter Payments, retweeted a photo of herself last year sleeping in a sleeping bag in the office with the caption, \u201cWhen your team is pushing round the clock to make deadlines sometimes you #SleepWhereYouWork.\u201d Platformer\u2019s Z\u00f6e Schiffer confirmed Crawford\u2019s layoff in a tweet on Sunday.
\n\u201cThe worst take you could have from watching me go all-in on Twitter 2.0 is that my optimism or hard work was a mistake. Those who jeer & mock are necessarily on the sidelines and not in the arena. I\u2019m deeply proud of the team for building through so much noise & chaos,\u201d Crawford tweeted on Sunday.
\nThe New York Times reported on Sunday that Twitter on Saturday night laid off 200 employees, approximately 10 percent of the company\u2019s workforce. This comes months after Twitter CEO Elon Musk\u2002laid off about half of Twitter\u2019s workforce in November, saying at the time that that was the final round of layoffs.
\nMusk also announced in an internal memo on Monday that the remaining Twitter employees will receive \u201cvery significant\u201d performance-based stock awards, The Verge reported. This was also his first communication to employees since the layoffs over the weekend, the report said.<\/p>\n
