I also think as he doesn’t align politically with a lot of ppl on Twitter, he might wanna phase it out slowly, so there’s no sudden jump in other platforms trying to take over the role of Twitter.

Most of the employees that were in the US did not have contracts, so most of them could be let go at any given time. However, I recall that when he tried to fire a bunch of workers in Ireland, they just lawyered up, and their lawyers solved the issue.
In places where contracts are standard practice for employment, it’s a fairly common that when a company wants you out, they pay you a large amount of money or the remainder of the contract to leave and not return.
