why facebook is hiring like crazy under covid-19?

i see a bunch of people talking about upcoming fb interviews recently. i myself also received many Hi from fb recruiters on linkedin. Even google has slowed their onsite schedule(google clearly has much more cash than fb). what is facebook thinking? i think fb revenue will be seriously impacted by reduced ads.

This is not a fact? With so many laid off and few companies hiring, they can low ball everyone

Btw, did some research, google has 120b cash with about 100k employees, fb is 50b + 45k. They are pretty much on the same boat..

Google has 120k employees, so only off by 20%: https://abc.xyz/investor/static/pdf/2019Q4_alphabet_earnings_release.pdf
