Meta is laying off employees at WhatsApp, Instagram, and more


The cuts come after CEO Mark Zuckerberg declared 2023 to be the ‘year of efficiency.’

Meta has begun laying off employees across various departments, including WhatsApp, Instagram, and Reality Labs, according to people familiar with the matter. Among them is Jane Manchun Wong, who gained notoriety for reporting on unannounced features coming to apps before joining the Threads team in 2023. This new round of layoffs follows a small series of job cuts in the company’s Reality Labs division earlier this year.
