简单说
- Meta最近针对滥用公司福利的人动手,开除了20几个人。
- 事发地是Meta在加州LA的办公室
- 福利是无附设餐厅的办公室,公司有给餐饮补贴,然而员工拿来买其他个人用品
- 补贴为早餐20元,午晚餐各25元,而且可以外送,但需送至办公室。
- Meta员工薪水中位数约为38万美元
- Meta先前才对几个部门裁员,而这次针对滥用福利者则是开除(firings)
- Meta股价过去一年涨了80%(刚查了一下,已经破90%惹)
- 据其他消息指出(这篇新闻没写),这些滥用的人是真的玩得太过份 XD
新闻提到有跑去买红酒酒杯的 XD 根据其他新闻则特别提到一两次无所谓~
这次被开掉的都是累犯仔~
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
