Meta eyes biggest-ever layoffs: What HR’s email told employees
Meta is preparing for its largest-ever round of layoffs, with employees in wearables and ads told to work from home as cuts loom. Reuters reported the reductions could affect 20% of its nearly 79,000-strong workforce—around 15,800 jobs. The move is driven by Meta’s $600 billion AI infrastructure commitment and a broader push toward leaner, AI-assisted operations, compounded by setbacks with its in-house AI models.
