According to a report by the Washington Post, the Meta company, which owns Facebook, is preparing for a new round of job cuts, assigning human resources, lawyers, financial experts and senior executives to develop plans to reduce the company’s hierarchy, as part of efforts to reorganize and reduce the size that may affect thousands of employees.
According to the report, Meta plans to push some leaders to lower-level positions, in order to reduce the levels of management that separate the company’s president, Mark Zuckerberg, from the company’s trainees.
Other managers may end up overseeing more employees as their teams grow.
In addition to decisions targeting directors, the company is also considering more traditional cuts, including cutting some projects and jobs.
This report comes even though Zuckerberg had stated that he did not expect to implement more dismissals after the company cut 11,000 jobs at the end of last year.
And the young billionaire confirmed in statements to the remaining employees that he had implemented large job cuts to reduce the chances of carrying out such large dismissals in the foreseeable future.
The report stressed that these plans target all departments within the company and all over the world and will not occur collectively, but will likely be implemented over the coming months.
And Meta announced plans in November to lay off 11,000 employees in the company, or 13% of the workforce, as part of the wave of layoffs within companies. technology.
