About 8,000 employees · 10% of the workforce
AI · pressMeta told employees it will lay off about 8,000 people, roughly 10% of its workforce, starting May 20, and will leave about 6,000 open roles unfilled while it pours money into AI.
About 3,600 employees · 5% of the workforce
Meta said it would cut about 5% of its staff, roughly 3,600 jobs, focusing on employees rated as low performers. The plan came from a Mark Zuckerberg memo first reported by Bloomberg.
Each layoff is an announcement a company made or confirmed, with at least one source. Employee totals add the numbers as stated: “about”, “at least” and “up to” figures count as given, and layoffs without a number count toward companies and layoffs only. Headquarters filters use where a company is based, not where the cuts happen.
