簡單說
- Meta最近針對濫用公司福利的人動手，開除了20幾個人。
- 事發地是Meta在加州LA的辦公室
- 福利是無附設餐廳的辦公室，公司有給餐飲補貼，然而員工拿來買其他個人用品
- 補貼為早餐20元，午晚餐各25元，而且可以外送，但需送至辦公室。
- Meta員工薪水中位數約為38萬美元
- Meta先前才對幾個部門裁員，而這次針對濫用福利者則是開除(firings)
- Meta股價過去一年漲了80%(剛查了一下，已經破90%惹)
- 據其他消息指出(這篇新聞沒寫)，這些濫用的人是真的玩得太過份 XD
新聞提到有跑去買紅酒酒杯的 XD 根據其他新聞則特別提到一兩次無所謂~
這次被開掉的都是累犯仔~
Meta fires employees for spending food allowances on personal items like acne
pads and wine glasses
New York
CNN
—
Meta fired around two dozen employees from its Los Angeles office for
misusing company meal credits for things like laundry detergent, wine glasses
and acne treatment pads, a source familiar with the company confirmed to CNN.
Many of the social media giant’s corporate offices feature elaborate food
services to provide employees with meals as a perk. Meta’s two-year-old
office near New York City’s Penn Station, for example, features a cafeteria
that feels like an upscale food court, with various stalls all free for staff.
But for employees at smaller offices without food services, the company
provides meal vouchers — $20 for breakfast and $25 each for lunch and dinner
— so they can have food delivered to the office while on the job.
The meal vouchers are meant for employees to eat while working at the office
— sometimes long hours stretching across several meals of the day, notorious
in the tech world.
An internal investigation found that some LA-based employees used the meal
funds to purchase things other than food instead, or had meals delivered to
their homes, the source said.
Meta’s median total annual compensation for individual employees (other than
CEO Mark Zuckerberg) is $379,050, the company said in a regulatory filing
earlier this year.
The firings, which took place last week, were first reported by the Financial
Times.
News of the firings comes as Meta acknowledged on Thursday that it was laying
off people across the company as part of a series of separate restructurings.
“Today, a few teams at Meta are making changes to ensure resources are
aligned with their long-term strategic goals and location strategy,” Meta
spokesperson Tracy Clayton said in a statement. “This includes moving some
teams to different locations, and moving some employees to different roles.
In situations like this when a role is eliminated, we work hard to find other
opportunities for impacted employees.”
Meta declined to share how many employees were laid off.
The cuts took place across Instagram, WhatsApp, Facebook and Reality Labs,
which houses Meta’s virtual reality and metaverse efforts.
Among those laid off were Jane Manchun Wong, a prominent security researcher
who became well known in the tech world for predicting new social media
features — like a Facebook resume feature and a tool on the platform
formerly known as Twitter that let users hide replies to their tweets —
before she was hired by Meta in June 2023 to work on the Instagram and
Threads team.
Meta laid off more than 20,000 employees last year over multiple rounds of
cuts, in an effort to reverse a year of revenue declines and stagnating user
growth, which Zuckerberg termed its “year of efficiency.” The company’s
shares (META) are up nearly 80% from this time last year
