r/Layoffs on Reddit: Meta Layoffs - How’s everyone feeling?
February 10, 2025 -
Nothing to say. Tired of these companies laying people off left, right, and centre. I know so many great people working at all such companies and this kind of ‘low performance’ layoffs are so disheartening and demotivating for people. I’ve heard people say that it leaves a black mark on people and their careers will be ruined at least temporarily. I don’t think that’s gonna happen honestly. People have short memories and no one is sitting and keeping track of who got laid off/ when etc.
However, how’s everyone feeling? It’s a sad bad day.

What bugs me is i get contacted by meta recruiters while they're also laying off. Why not just retain your talent and grow them? This is so f'd up. not humble brag or anything, just saying recruiters trying to hire while they're also laying off. It's like eating while you're shitting

This is true. I was laid off from one of the biggest companies in the Bay area (not FAANG). My salary didnt recover to others' levels even after 2 switches.

One of the latest examples is Meta, which said on Wednesday that it was rejiggering some of its biggest businesses, resulting in lost jobs at Instagram, Reality Labs, and WhatsApp.
