The former CEO appeared to agree with the dismissals, saying he had grown the company « too quickly ».
Twitter co-founder and ex-CEO Jack Dorsey has addressed the mass sackings at his former firm, apologising for growing Twitter « too quickly ».
Half of the social media giant’s staff are being fired, a week after Elon Musk bought it in a $44bn deal.
Billionaire Mr Musk has said he had « no choice » but to slash the company’s workforce as the firm is losing more than $4m (£3.5m) a day.
