After layoffs targeting half the company, the Elon Musk-led Twitter is reportedly asking dozens of employees to come back.

"Some of those who are being asked to return were laid off by mistake, according to two people familiar with the moves. Others were let go before management realized that their work and experience may be necessary to build the new features Musk envisions, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing private information," Bloomberg wrote.
