He is offering a severance well beyond what he needs to for anyone that wants to go. That's not even close to what Elon did.

On top of that, they are going to rehire. This isn't a cull of the business because it's losing money.

If memory serves, Twitter did offer generous severance packages. Elno just refused to honor them.

Rehire? Did that change?
