Twitter (Elon Musk)

After taking command of Twitter, the company’s new boss Elon Musk had taken several major decisions, one of which was to show the employees the way out of the company. Thousands of employees working in the company had lost their jobs due to Musk’s harsh decision of acquisition and retrenchment, but two of these women have now filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk in a US court.

These two women working in Twitter have claimed that the sudden mass retrenchment has had a deep impact on women employees.

Twitter has informed about half of the employees on November 4 that they no longer have a job but they will be given three months’ salary.

These women, who have filed a lawsuit against Musk, say that women employees have been targeted in mass layoffs. Women have mentioned in their complaint filed in the court that twitter has reportedly laid off 57% of its female workers as compared to 47% of men.

According to the news Agency AP Report, it has been alleged that the women who have been hurt by the retrenchment take care of their children and other family members. But now it is becoming difficult to do all this due to the harsh decision of retrenchment.
