San Francisco:
Four former Twitter executives, including former CEO Parag Agrawal, have sued Elon Musk, seeking more than $128 million in severance pay, the Wall Street Journal reported on Monday.
The other plaintiffs are Ned Segal, Twitter’s former chief financial officer; Vijaya Gadde, its former chief legal officer; and Sean Edgett, reportedly the company’s former general counsel.
The executives led the company through a lengthy and sometimes hostile takeover process, and after Musk changed his mind, they sued the billionaire to complete the acquisition. They said Musk fired them for gross negligence and willful misconduct, which they deny. The Wall Street Journal reports.
Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, did not immediately respond to Reuters’ request for comment.
