Twitter,mari membaca cerita lucah under the fresh tenure of Elon Musk, fired roughly half of its workforce last week. And now, the company is asking some of those employees to come back.
This is according to a new report by Bloomberg, which claims that Twitter is reaching out to "dozens of employees" to return to the social media company.
