Several leading tech companies across the globe, including Google, Microsoft, and others had been firing employees at an alarming rate. The new addition is Meta which is the parent company for several leading social platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.
According to the latest developments, Meta is considering the idea of firing 20% of its global workforce starting soon.
This massive social platform company is currently operating with a human workforce of around 79,000 and going by the calculations they could be firing as many as 15,000 employees in the near future.
This is going to be one of the biggest layoffs from a leading tech company in recent years and is certainly the biggest for Meta as a company as well. The company had earlier fired around 10,000 people in 2022 and around 11,000 in 2023.
Now they’re preparing for the biggest sizing down operation by firing over 15,000 employees. It appears that the company is largely checking up their operations and aligning with the AI advancement.
It is being reported that artificial intelligence deployment is the primary reason behind this human workforce layoffs now. But this is sad news to all the employees, considering the good work life balance that Meta usually produces.
Considering the AI revolution, even senior employees at global tech institutions are not safe from layoffs and this new mass layoff at Meta is clearly depicting the same.
