Twitter Execs Drop Like Flies As Musk Finalizes $40 Billion Purchase

Twitter Execs Drop Like Flies As Musk Finalizes $40 Billion Purchase

The timing couldn’t be better.

Elon Musk is weeks away from finalizing a $44 billion acquisition of Twitter, arguably the most important social media platform ever created.

Weeks away if and only if Biden’s federal government doesn’t give him a hard time, which is likely not going to be the case.

The Tesla CEO has teased multiple policy changes he plans to put in effect as soon as he takes over, including a transformation of Twitter’s content moderation and censorship policies, which is music to most conservatives’ ears.

On Thursday, it was announced that two of Twitter’s top executives have resigned following disappointing revenue figures.

Kayvon Beykpour, the general manager of consumer products, was asked to leave by Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal. And Bruce Falck, the general manager of revenue, announced his departure on Thursday.

“It’s critical to have the right leaders at the right time,” Agrawal said in a memo to staff published by the Verge.

“Effective this week, we are pausing most hiring and backfills, except for business-critical roles as determined by Staff members in partnership with their HRBPs. … We are not planning company-wide layoffs, but leaders will continue making changes to their organizations to improve efficiencies as needed.”

 

Beykpour will be replaced by Jay Sullivan, who had been serving as the interim general manager of the consumer product. The company is searching for a replacement for Falck. Agrawal thanked the two for their work for the company and did not elaborate on why they were leaving.

Falck also tweeted about his departure and thanked his team at Twitter for all of their work.

 

Agrawal hinted in the memo that the hiring freeze and a drawdown of discretionary spending came because the company did not “hit intermediate milestones” in revenue and audience growth.

The internal management changes come amid Musk’s $44 billion acquisition of Twitter, which is currently being evaluated by federal authorities. Musk has sought to nudge the company to censor less content and has reportedly told banks he believes he has plans to grow revenue at the social media giant.

Earlier this week, the Tesla CEO said he opposed the company’s ban on former President Donald Trump, which came in response to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

However, Trump has said he’s happy at Truth Social and won’t be returning to the social media platform he was so brilliant at using.

We can expect even more massive Twitter shakeups in the coming weeks, and it couldn’t be more glorious.
