Layoff timeline
1 EVENTSocial platform X eliminated over 20 nontechnical roles in recent weeks and laid off its head of global marketing, Angela Zepeda, who lost her job last month. The cuts come as owner Elon Musk prepares to take his rocket company SpaceX public and as X seeks to ramp up revenue after losing substantial advertising business since Musk's takeover in 2022. Zepeda had been hired in 2024 to lead marketing efforts and had been expected to spearhead a brand campaign that never launched. The article ties the X workforce trimming to broader corporate reorganizations involving Musk's companies (xAI and SpaceX) but provides no specific location or exact layoff date.
