Twitter announces closure of NYC and San Francisco offices
Twitter on Wednesday announced that it was closing its New York City and San Francisco offices and pausing all other office reopenings, in response to the latest CDC warnings about COVID-19. The Silicon Valley firm had already, in May 2020, become the first major tech company to allow staffers to work from home permanently, even after coronavirus lockdowns end. On Wednesday it said it was closing its two largest offices.
'After careful consideration of the CDC's updated guidelines, and in light of current conditions, Twitter has made the decision to close our opened offices in New York and San Francisco as well as pause future office reopenings, effective immediately,' the company said.
'We continue to monitor local conditions and make necessary changes that prioritize the health and safety of our Tweeps.'
The decision was made just two weeks after reopening the offices in both cities.
