      Submission statement: Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has announced sweeping layoffs of what he refers to as „low-performers“ at his empire.

      According to a company-wide memo [obtained by *Bloomberg*](https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-01-14/meta-is-planning-to-cut-5-of-lowest-performers-memo-shows?sref=YfHlo0rL), the Facebook owner is cutting around five percent of its staff. And interestingly, the directive is already in tension with what Zuckerberg [told podcaster Joe Rogan](https://futurism.com/the-byte/zuckerberg-automate-coding-ai) last week about how the company was looking to replace „midlevel engineers“ with AI. Instead — in a likely concession to AI just not quite being up to snuff yet — he says employees „who aren’t meeting expectations“ will be replaced in order to „bring new people in“ (emphasis on the „people,“ for any AI zealots.)

      „I’ve decided to raise the bar on performance management and move out low-performers faster,“ he wrote in the message, adding that terminated employees would be provided with „generous severance.“

      Zuckerberg wrote that 2025 will be an „intense year“ that will require the „strongest talent.“ But what exactly he means by that remains unclear as the billionaire makes sweeping changes to the company’s operations.

      Both Instagram & Facebook sucks ass already, can’t wait for the eventual collapse with ai slop code in there

      No they won’t. Zuck wanted to do layoffs anyway to make the line go up and this is a nice convenient excuse.

      If only Marketplace had an good alternative where i live, id be out of all Meta BS for good.

      You can almost see it happen how companies will lay off coders just to fuck with them lol.

      Read the article. They are purging low performers that will be replaced by other humans.

      I genuinely wonder what stuff people work with.

      Usually AI ‚helps‘ me to figure the easy stuff out at work. The kind you can just google. Max 10% work on a good day.

      90% is hard crap where information is scare or politics involved. Anyone trying to solve it with AI would lose the will to live.

      I was addicted to Facebook. Spent so much time on it. My entire life from 2006-2020 is chronicled on there. Every event with all three kids, from birth to teen years. Every photo. Every pet come and gone. Every career win and struggle. It was my journal.

      I had a network of friends who only existed to me on Facebook. It was my only line to high school friends, college friends, etc.

      I deleted my account 3 days go. I’m done. If I can be done, you can too. Don’t deactivate, delete. We have to put this shit down, it’s causing mental harm to us as individuals and societies.

      Zuckerberg announced that his clone Suckerburg took over as CEO months ago and nobody noticed.

      A.I. is going to take so much money out of the average person’s wallet and stick in the weathly’s…As if the divide wasn’t big enough already.

      The class war is coming, and you’re on the losing side, prepare yourself mentally.

      IMO he and Musk are working together to cut staff to make Facebook lean and mean like Musk did with Twitter. The more chaos inside the company, the more chaos they can cause with right wing circles.

      I think all these platforms want left wing voices dead and gone. First step to shutting down free speech. The more chaos they cause, the more organized they get.

      I also think Zuck has a divorce coming. That’s why he’s ok with all this. Maybe we’ll hear about it within the next year.

      I’m surprised a divorce hasn’t happened sooner. He seems insufferable. Seems none of the billionaires stay married. In fact it seems they all become incels. Not sure about Bezos. He’s very secretive, like a Bond villain. Maybe it’s why he bought the franchise.

      Layoff everyone there already. They are the tech industry equivalent of coal miners.

    14. etanimod on

      I mean he has said that he wants to replace all of his junior devs with ai, with the goal of eventually replacing all devs with ai

      How about we stop using products from companies who think people are obsolete? What do you think Zucky?

    16. cristobalist on

      Zuck: „I’m firing people from this shitty company. Comments, questions, concerns?“

      Lol

    18. SizzlingSpit on

      With the advent of AI, these tech corps virtue signalling Ai dependency, may actually be a sign of their downfall. The companies may brick themselves out of their own products like sonos. Zuck revitilizing his fashion to be more like logan paul is too uncanny and exactly what an alien would do.

    19. TheButtDog on

      Zuck said AI will do some engineering work. That doesn’t necessarily mean that it will replace workers.

      Who is going to feed the AI? Who is going to check whether the code is error free or not?
      Who will edit?

      Imagine being this lucky Bastard Zuckerberg and then using a shotgun to kill ur company asap.

      Dont tell him. Never disturb your enemies while committing grave mistakes.

      Unfortunately this appears to be the layest trend and talking point today…coders on the chopping block.

      The first thing AI better do is scan gazillion of terabytes of code for back doors.

      Ah everyone rushing to imitate Ballmer era Microsoft with a % cutoff of low performance people every year.

      Enjoy the cutthroat environment where none will help anybody. Knowledge will be held in silos and managers will start to hire people to be fired next year round to preserve the team.

      Good luck with filling the giant whole in the economy those jobs once filled.

      Goodbye local economic spending. Be preptto see more businesses closing and more pressure on the government to help those let go.

      Thank to you lot for training me to be a somewhat functional human, I will now be replacing all humans with clones of myself, some of you may be staying behind to help me with some recaptcha systems.

      Sincerely
      Mark Zuckerberg.

      Remember when Zuckerberg said the future was in virtual reality, poured hundreds of billions into it, and then nothing came of it? Pepperidge Farms remembers.
