Looming Meta job cuts leave employees in ambiguity — ‘Might be goodbye for me’

As the May 20 layoffs loom over thousands of Meta employees, social media has been flooded with anxiety-ridden, dark humour posts as they wait to learn who will be out of a job.

In a memo sent to staff on Thursday, Meta said it shared some layoff details earlier than usual because the news had already leaked. The company plans to cut around 10% of employees next month and close 6,000 open roles.
