Zuckerberg Tells the Tattered Remainder of His Workers That He Won’t Conduct Another Mass Firing for at Least Seven Months

Meta cut about 8,000 jobs and shifted 7,000 employees into AI work, with Mark Zuckerberg saying no further major layoffs are planned for at least seven months.

The restructuring underscores Meta’s push to prioritize AI as it reshapes the company’s workforce and operating focus.

At the same time, Meta is monitoring employee activity to help train AI tools, fueling backlash over surveillance and morale.

Workers are also worried they may be helping build systems that could eventually replace their own jobs.
