#ElonMusk made deep cuts to #Twitter’s workforce when he acquired the company in Oct 2022, & #X only has about 120 employees left in #SanFrancisco…. The employees will be moved to office space in #SanJose & #PaloAlto [to the cities’ dismay], where #Musk’s #AI start-up, #xAI, operates out of, & the company will conduct a survey to figure out where individual employees want to work [somewhere unaffiliated w/Musk].

The social network’s departure will mark the end of an era for #SanFrancisco’s downtown #MidMarket neighborhood, where city ofcls once courted #tech companies w/incentives dubbed the “#Twitter tax break.”
#ElonMusk moves #X out of #SanFrancisco. City leaders shrug [more like rejoice, especially good riddance – the offensively bright X]
The city’s chief economist says that after #Musk’s deep staff cuts, X didn’t offer much to #SF anyway.
After 18 yrs, Elon Musk will move X, formerly known as #Twitter, out of SanFrancisco, acc/to Mayor #LondonBreed’s office.
