Meta Platforms, Inc. plans to lay off approximately 3,703 employees, which amounts to 5% of its workforce. The company, led by Mark Zuckerberg, will begin notifying employees worldwide starting at 5 a.m. local time on Monday. These cuts are being referred to as “performance terminations.” Employees in certain European countries will not be impacted due to local regulations. Meta’s post-COVID-19 restructuring began in 2022 and included layoffs of 10,000 employees.
