‘AI-first is an expectation’: Meet the Meta employee who ‘asked to be included’ in latest 8K layoffs
In an unconventional move, a one-time content designer at Facebook admitted to having “asked to be included” in Meta’s layoffs this week. Julie Bone, who was with the Mark Zuckerberg-led giant for six years—which she said “is longer than 80% of the company”—shocked social media users with her layoff confession on May 20 (US time).
On Wednesday, her SNS post joined a seemingly endless stream of heavy-hearted tweets and LinkedIn messages in which Meta employees across the world expressed their emotional distress upon being fired from the tech firm.
