I had been interviewing the last couple of weeks and received an offer just this week, was during the negotiations phase with them around compensation and had it rescinded today, they stated they were freezing hiring and reevaluating their workforce —  read more 

I worked as a contractor and I would not wish my experience on anyone. Raising the minimum wage for all U.S. contract workers were an expected move, but how satisfying is it given the rise in the cost of living?

So, do not worry. Already accepted Meta offers are still being honored!

Do you think there will be layoffs at Reality Labs? If yes, how many?

Is it true that Contract Workers (CWs) are being laid off this week? What does it mean for the employees?

Is this round of layoffs going to affect people who are in HR? If yes, do you know how deep will the cut go? BTW, the cuts have started already.

Heard from a D1 at Facebook that Facebook will layoff ~12% of its staff. He stated that slowing growth and declining users especially in core Facebook platform is accelerating.

This was my dream job. I am still happy with the compensation for my work, but I feel too exhausted. Lately I've been thinking if it's worth dealing with so much stress?

How’s the company morale after these recent stock dips and recession talk? Is it safe for new joiners?

RIP. They have started hiring a lot of indian recruiters who are absolutely corrupt. East coast locations like ATL are horrible work environments where employees get nothing important done. It's over. I'm so glad I left last year. Politics are... —  read more

You don't lose that much money in one day and not do something drastic to appease the shareholders. You just don't. I'm thinking we'll be hearing about major layoffs soon since that's the quickest way to make significant cost cuts. I'll be shocked if... —  read more 

My bad...$230 BILLION...what's the difference between a bunch of grifters?

Has anyone looked at the quarterly results in more detail? It's a little worrying. Though I must say it didn't surprise me at all. Will the trend of losing daily users continue?

If so, it sure looks like we are headed closer to... —  read more

Elizabeth Warren quipped, "are they going into the witness protection program?" Seems more like the Metaverse monopoly is trying to take over the world's weak minds.

FTC dropped anti trust. FBI is suspect. Zuckerberg under the table money. Marky influenced with massive funds the Arizona election. FRAUD!
