Twitter vacating office space in India too, staff told to work remotely

Elon Musk-owned Twitter is reportedly vacating its co-working spaces in Delhi and Mumbai after having already done so in Bengaluru.

Already 150 of the company’s employees who work at the WeWork facility in Mumbai’s BKC, and 80 at The Executive Centre in Delhi’s Qutub area are asked to do so, reports said.

IANS, quoting sources, reported that the company has also given up co-working spaces in Bengaluru, indicating that this was due to global changes within the company.

Earlier this week, Musk, who failed to pay the rent for Twitter headquarters in San Francisco, asked its remaining staff in Singapore to work remotely as the company is unable to pay the monthly rent.

Work From Home

According to reports, Twitter employees were informed about the decision via email, instructing them to leave the CapitaGreen building and work from home.

Casey Newton of Platformer said in a tweet on Thursday, “Twitter employees were just walked out of its Singapore office – its Asia-Pacific headquarters – over nonpayment of rent”.

“Landlords walked employees out of the building,” he posted.

In the US, Twitter has been sued as it failed to pay $136,250 rent for its office space in San Francisco.
