Well, it was a particularly interesting day at meta. Everywhere it’s all hush hush. It’s happening and almost everyone is certain that it’ll happen. I don’t think anyone below directors had any idea about it. I’ve heard from someone who heard from someone….blah blah talks are there. If they do end up laying off 10-15%, that’s definitely going to involve all functions and most teams. This size is >10000. Finding a job in this market at this time is extremely challenging(especially if you’re on visa). I just hope that if I get axed, at least keep me till Jan. 60 days to find a job at this time, unlikely. One thing that I noticed today, most of my team member did not do any productive work today and I think it’ll be same tomorrow. Being in this state isn’t really good for health! All the meta haters/dislikers, we’re only employees. We joined meta because it paid well, as simple as that. Stop hating Tc: 320——->???? #meta #layoffs #tech #meta #layoffs
Same here. Nobody’s working. Even meetings got canceled.
It’s fruitless I guess.
My team chats last message was sent last Friday 💀💀💀
This sucks big time. I wish all the best to the employees.
Good luck my friends, it’s your turn today, another’s turn tomorrow
Why the Fuck you have to jinx others ? It’s not like it will make Metamates happier !!
Well said, we’re all in the same boat. It’s just a matter of timing. Good luck to everyone, and hope you land on your feet.
Who will work on the Metaverse ???
The torch will be carried on by remaining metamates 🫡
Let’s all say thank you for the reality labs.
Stay strong buddy. Whatever happens its not the end of the world. There’ll be better opportunities ahead.
You are underestimating the impact. The system is being broken down far beyond the tech industry and the US.
This isn’t the first session and I won’t be the last. There will be more opportunities next year meeting in a few months you can mark my words. also most companies are hiring today. It’s just a big tech or not. people tend to forget big tech is probably half a percent of all of the companies out there hiring
Stay strong Everything will be alright…
I feel extremely sad for my coworkers on visa right now, can't imagine how stressful it must be for them
They have a chance to visit family. Many delayed because of COVID. With parents getting old, it is a blessing to care for them.
Oracle, I don't think you understand what being on visa means! They might lose the life they built in US and move back to their home countries, with less to none probability of ever coming back.
Don’t need to perform this week. Your manager understands.
lol sure
Those who don't perform this week and survive, go in the next round.
Goodluck my friend! Hope everything will be alright.
Lol he makes $320k he’ll be fine
^^ haters be hating
