Meta will lay off 10% of 8000 employees affected

On April 24, Meta planned to lay off 10% of its employees, affecting approximately 8000 employees. The group sought to improve operating efficiency through layoffs to offset the huge expenses on artificial intelligence (AI). Meta disclosed the layoffs in a memorandum sent to employees, saying that the layoffs will be implemented on May 20 and that the group will no longer recruit the 6000 vacant positions originally planned to fill. Janelle Gale, head of human resources at Meta, mentioned AI spending, saying that layoffs are part of a continued improvement in the company's operating efficiency and will help offset other investments Meta is making.
