Per US. Citizenship and Immigration Services, around 300 employees at Twitter are working under the H-1B visa.

My note: I am aware of someone at Meta attempting to reach out to these folks to interview for offers to transfer their visas. Very kind of folks willing to do so.

This data apparently is not complete, if you search Amazon it returns 646 employees, a random Amazon high rise building has more H1-B workers than that count.

The number is likely somewhere between 300 and however many Twitter employees are remaining (~1000?).

Meta is firing 11K people and freezing hiring right now.

Twitter will bounce back. For the people who are staying, this is a giant career opportunity to get a good executive job as the result. I'd stay in a heartbeat, even if it means spending one terrible year or two there.
