New York: As many as 2,200 former Twitter employees have filed arbitration cases against Elon Musk and X, the rebranded version of the microblogging site.
After taking over Twitter last October, Musk radically restructured the company. Thousands of layoffs and transformative changes led to a wave of grievances. The arbitration claims, disclosed in a court filing, could amass a whopping $3.5 million in filing fees alone.
The lawsuits, against Twitter, X Corp. and Musk, reveal a complex web of disputes.
Chris Woodfield, a former senior staff network engineer, has alleged that X failed to deliver on promised severance pay and blocked the dispute resolution process by neglecting essential fees required for advancement within the JAMS arbitration system.
JAMS charges $2,000 (around Rs 1,65,590) for two-party cases and $400 (roughly Rs 33,120) for employment-related disputes, but they have applied a flat $2,000 fee for all 2,200 of X’s cases by former employees.
The company’s lawyer said that X didn’t enforce arbitration as the sole conflict resolution method, distancing themselves from footing the substantial filing fees, according to a CNBC report.
