๐ผ๐Mass Layoffs and Absentee Bosses: Meta Morale Hits Rock Bottom
Hey, everyone, listen up! Meta, the company that brought you Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, is going through some tough times. They’re dealing with massive layoffs, and the top bosses are scattered all over the place.
So, what’s going on? Want to know who’s getting fired? Just check the Meta online chat group where engineers were discussing the situation. They used the ๐ฅ emoji to show how things are going. Not good, folks. ๐
The big boss, Mark Zuckerberg, has declared 2023 the “year of efficiency.” But that efficiency has come with mass layoffs, and now over 21,000 people will lose their jobs. That’s not all; they’re also closing 5,000 open positions. ๐ผ๐ซ
Where are the top bosses? Well, some of them have moved away and are now managing the company from places like London and Tel Aviv. This has caused morale to plummet, and the employees who still work at Meta are worried. ๐ฐ
Meta’s stock price has dropped 43% since 19 months ago, and more layoffs are coming this month. The company is facing some challenging times, and the employees feel like they’re in a mix of “Hunger Games” and “Lord of the Flies.” ๐คฏ๐
Other big tech companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, Salesforce, and more have also laid off many people, but Meta seems to have the most problems. The company reported declining revenue for two consecutive quarters last year. ๐
Zuckerberg has invested heavily in the metaverse, but no one knows if people will buy into his vision. Even though they’ve sold 20 million virtual reality headsets, customers aren’t returning regularly. Meta employees are skeptical too. ๐ค๐ญ
The absence of top executives from Meta’s headquarters in Menlo Park, California, is compounding the issue. Even though Zuckerberg has encouraged employees to return to the office, his top lieutenants have moved away. โ๏ธ๐
Inside Meta, employees feel the pressure to demonstrate that they’re working hard. They face intense scrutiny during workplace reviews, and some employees are trying to make themselves look busier. But this is causing less collaboration with coworkers. ๐ค
The upcoming cuts this month will focus on tech departments, including engineers. Insiders think that the cuts will hit WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook teams. ๐ฅ๐ป
Meta employees have created memes and inside jokes about how long they have left. In messaging groups and workplace chats, they’ve been using the ๐ emoji to signal that they might be part of the layoffs.
They’re also complaining about reduced bonuses and perks. One engineer created a bot that would automatically calculate the loss in the value of Meta stock held by employees. ๐
The company is cutting back on some of the lavish perks that made it a popular place to work before. They’ve ended the free laundry service and pushed dinner service later. Workers are complaining about the cutbacks. ๐ฅฃ
Travel expenses are also being scrutinized more closely, and workers have been asked to cut down on nonessential travel.
