Twitter Ordered to Pay $600K to Irish Exec for Unfair Dismissal
Ireland's Workplace Relations Commission rules against Elon Musk's 24-hour ultimatum email, awarding record compensation to former employee.
- Gary Rooney was dismissed after failing to respond to Musk's 'hardcore' work culture email.
- The WRC found that not clicking 'yes' did not constitute a resignation.
- Rooney was awarded €550,000 for lost and future remuneration.
- The ruling highlights issues with Musk's management style and mass layoffs at Twitter.
- Twitter, now rebranded as X, may face further legal challenges from other former employees.
