Why a quarter, isn't it more then a third? Edit: Sorry, i misread it that they would want to get rid of a quarter of their people and omitted the million.
330100-90000=240100
240,100 is pretty close to 250,000. 250000*4=1,000,000
Unless you just misread the tweet or chart, in which case, sorry for explaining the wrong part.

Didn't even consider that misunderstanding! No need for apologies, just glad to help!
330100-90000 = 240100, that's pretty close to a quarter of a million.
330-90=240.
330-90=240
So about a quarter mil when you put the zeros back in.
there are probably other scientists being cut not mentioned in this chart
