Moi actually got a sinkie friend who worked in twitter singapore and also ganna the axe. He said he and many of his colleagues already anticipated this and started prepare their resume as soon as the news of the takeover ish confirmed.

Wat actually surprised him ish the axe fell much sooner than he and many of his ex-colleagues had expected, since they initially thought the mass retrenchment will only happen 3~6 months down the road and will have proper process and handshaking packets.

Don't kid yourself lah - Those who has worked for US firms knows their  way of axing people can be instantly in the very morning you arrive at the office. Give you a few hours to clear your cubicle before being escorted out by security by lunch time. What 3-6 months ? Rolleyes
All need to clear out first. Then new comers can come in at a later stage.
