News summary

Meta is conducting layoffs across multiple units, including Instagram, WhatsApp, and Reality Labs, as part of a broader strategy to align resources with long-term goals and reduce costs. These layoffs are reportedly not large in scale but coincide with team reorganizations and shifts in employee roles and locations. A specific incident involving the termination of two dozen employees in Los Angeles for misuse of meal credits was reported separately. Since November 2022, Meta has laid off around 21,000 employees, with CEO Mark Zuckerberg labeling 2023 as the 'Year of Efficiency' to streamline operations following over-ambitious pandemic hiring. While Meta's specific number of recent job cuts remains undisclosed, the company continues to perform well financially, having exceeded market expectations in its latest earnings report. Notably, industry expert Jane Manchun Wong publicly shared her layoff experience, reflecting the personal impact of these corporate changes.
