I was just laid off from Meta. We knew more cuts were coming from the news before Mark Zuckerberg even told us, and the way the layoffs were ultimately handled was very cold.

a week ago with leaked information about layoffs coming, but internally, employees' questions about that weren't answered for days until Zuckerberg's announcement. I was pretty disappointed and frustrated with how long it took leadership to address that.

On Tuesday night, I was texting with a lot of my colleagues about the looming layoffs. I couldn't sleep because I knew we'd start hearing about them in the early morning in my time zone, so I was up at 4 a.m. talking with folks and trying to see what was going on.The severance is pretty good, honestly, and there was a lot of helpful information in the email, but clearly it was a very impersonal, automated email.

I've been looking online already today to apply for positions, and in a lot of cases there's a position that's been posted within a day and there are already more than 100 applications, which is not typical.
