10,000 employees for what? I never thought of Block to be that big. If Elon came in, he would probably fire 80% meaning 8000. Like he did with Twitter/X and Twitter ran fine this whole time.

It's nice that the laid off employees are treated better than many other places. Everywhere I worked, laid off employees were instantly cut off from all access. I would say my goodbyes to them later through LinkedIn.
