People were locked out of their systems and told that effective immediately they’re no longer working for twitter and that they should expect a severance letter in the coming weeks. That never came. And anyone claiming other stuff in the comments does not have any idea what happened.

Presumably email (plus getting locked out of equipment and work accounts) if this person was part of the November layoff group.

Maybe he didn't check his email in time before his hardware was locked

If I remember, a set of emails went out to everyone at Twitter. You either got the “we’re sorry” email or the “you weren’t laid off” email, along with instructions if you were a part of the laid off group.
