　　because Musk abandoned a $44 billion acquisition deal, US social media Twitter and Musk were caught in a legal battle, and at this critical moment, Another Twitter executive has resigned, and this news has also been officially confirmed by the company.

　　The departing Twitter executive was Sandeep Pandey, vice president of engineering. Pandey, who has worked at Twitter for more than a decade, will join rival Meta (Facebook parent company) after leaving this time.

　　It is reported that Pandey joined Twitter in 2012 and was subsequently promoted from ordinary engineer to vice president of engineering.

　　In an email to the media, a Twitter spokesperson confirmed Pandey's imminent departure from the company and said Pandey's departure was "natural" given changing industry trends. The spokesman stressed that the company remains under the effective governance of management.

　　Meta, Pandey's target company, has yet to comment.

　　After joining Meta, Pandey will reportedly work in the company's artificial intelligence and machine learning division.

　　Pandey's departure at this time has a great impact on Twitter, and it is also very unusual for Meta. Prior to that, Meta said it would slow down social hiring across the board this year, while cutting headcount.

　　In the second quarter of this year, Meta suffered its first-ever quarterly revenue decline. Meta is facing an antitrust lawsuit from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission for its acquisition of a new technology company in the virtual reality industry (it has already faced antitrust lawsuits over the acquisition of two social media companies).

　　Pandey isn't the first executive to leave Twitter this year. Earlier, Tesla boss Elon Musk announced that he would buy Twitter for $44 billion. Then in May, several Twitter executives left, including Katrina Lane, vice president of Twitter services, Ilya Brown, vice president of health, and Max Schmeiser, the head of data science.

　　In addition, in Twitter's internal restructuring, the company also fired several executives, including Kayvon Beykpour, the top product leader, and Bruce Falck, who was responsible for product revenue.

　　After reaching the original acquisition agreement, Musk backtracked and announced that he would walk away from the acquisition, citing that Twitter had lied to him about the number of fake and bot accounts on the Twitter platform.

　　Just recently, Twitter faced a storm of negative public opinion about user security and privacy. Twitter's former security chief, Peiter Zatko, acted as a whistleblower and broke the news to the outside world, accusing Twitter of serious inaction in terms of network security and user privacy protection, such as problems with the data protection system. , as well as violating federal regulations. Zucker filed a series of whistleblower materials with regulators including the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Trade Commission and the Justice Department. However, Twitter officials refuted Zach's revelations, saying there were false statements.

　　Following Zack's revelations, the data protection agencies of the European Irish and French governments also told the press that they would pay attention to Zack's revelations on Twitter. According to reports, on September 13 this year, the U.S. Senate will hold a hearing for Zach to report on various security issues on the Twitter platform.

　　In addition to this storm of negative public opinion, Twitter is also facing the same operating difficulties as other technology companies. In May, Twitter announced a blanket freeze on social recruiting, and two months later, Twitter fired 30 percent of its staffing staff.
