> Meta stressed to Reuters that the 60% figure applied only to scenarios involving certain teams and was never a plan to eliminate 60% of the company's overall workforce. Zuckerberg must have seen how Elon Musk laid off more than 50% of Twitter and how Jack Dorsey cut 50% of Block. So he knows that it is now time to downsize Meta by 60% and he REALLY wants to do it even if it is his own C-suite (except himself) and even if it causes unfriendly fire.
