Former top Twitter executives have filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk. The former employees said Musk failed to pay them nearly $130 million after he took over the company and fired them, AFP reports.
"Musk doesn't pay his bills, thinks the rules don't apply to him, and uses his wealth and power to run roughshod over anyone who disagrees with him," said the suit, filed in a federal court in California.
The plaintiffs include former CEO Parag Agrawal, who is seeking $57.4 million in damages, and fired CFO Ned Segal, who is seeking $44.5 million.
The other plaintiffs are former general counsel Vijaya Gade and the company's then general counsel Sean Edgett.
Musk fired Agrawal, Gade and Segal from their posts at the end of October 2022, following the completion of the controversial $44 billion acquisition of Twitter. / BGNES
