According to two people familiar with the enterprise, Twitter Inc. plans to fire 50 employees from the social media site's product division in the upcoming weeks, as the news website Insider reported.
The cuts, which come six weeks after Elon Musk, the company's top executive, reportedly assured colleagues there would be no further layoffs, may bring the company's headcount down to around 2,000, the story claims.
A request for comment from Reuters did not receive a response right away from Twitter.
Musk promptly implemented a number of organizational and product changes after taking over Twitter in October. In addition to laying off nearly 50% of its workforce, the firm launched a premium service of Twitter-verified Blue check-mark.
