After Twitter now Meta starts huge layoffs!
Following Twitter, major layoffs will now occur within the Meta. Similar to Twitter, serious layoffs may occur for reasons such as cutting costs and making changes in the company's stance. Over 87,000 people are employed by Meta at the moment. This could be the largest layoff of a tech company's workforce this year. A representative said "We will concentrate our investments in 2023 on a select few high-priority growth areas" As a result, he stated, "that means some teams will grow meaningfully, but the majority of other teams will stay the same or shrink over the next year." "We anticipate finishing 2023 with an organization that is either roughly the same size or even slightly smaller than it is now."
The Journal notes that Meta reported its first ever decline in revenue in July. Mark Zuckerberg's bid on the Metaverse, on the other hand, has so far failed to provide the company with any new revenue opportunities and has been extremely costly. Meta has spent $15 billion since the beginning of 2021 in an unsuccessful attempt to mainstream virtual and augmented reality.In 2023, the company anticipates a further loss on the project.
