Mass Twitter layoffs

[BPTactical]

There is the provision in the law for what is called an "unconscionable contract". That means the company policy is illegal. Elon does not make his own laws. I'd be real careful how you terminate an employee.


"If a contract is unfair or oppressive to one party in a way that suggests abuses during its formation, a court may find it unconscionable and refuse to enforce it. A contract is most likely to be found unconscionable if both unfair bargaining and unfair substantive terms are shown."

You can be assured that Musk’s legal team is well aware of any pitfalls to his separations. Why do you think he severances them so deeply?

Not directed at you, but the twitters who are now unemployed. ...
They knew months ago their jobs were on the line. Throw in all the WE'RE LEAVING, WE'RE NOT WORKING FOR A RACIST ( which i find funny) as they're now triggered by an african- American) WE'RE NOT GOING TO STAY , ETC, ETC ETC. Too fucking bad. They're gone. Severance package till 2/23?? Now they filed a class action suit ??


As for this tidbit

"If a contract is unfair or oppressive to one party in a way that suggests abuses during its formation,

ANY new business dumps dead wood. Where was the outrage. when disney dismissed hundreds of employees? Oh that's right different political agenda.

I wonder how many laid off Twitter employees had to make that last drive in a Tesla?

Hmm, they are considered still employees - so they just have received an extended vacation and the required 60 day notification of major layoff requirements.
