(Reuters) – Twitter has made further cuts to its global content moderation staff and its division that monitors hate speech and harassment, Bloomberg reported on Saturday.
At least a dozen more job cuts hit the Dublin and Singapore offices of the Elon Musk-owned social network on Friday night, the news agency added, citing sources familiar with the matter.
According to the article, positions have also been cut in disinformation policy teams.
Twitter’s VP of trust and security Ella Irwin confirmed to Reuters layoffs in her ranks, without further details.
“We have thousands of people (…) working on content moderation and have made no cuts to the teams that do this work on a daily basis,” he added in an email.
Twitter cut about 3,700 jobs in early November as part of Elon Musk’s cost-saving measures. Several hundred resignations followed.
