These layoffs reflect the tech industry’s shift toward efficiency and profitability over growth. With AI and new platforms as the focus, Meta is betting on its future—but at what cost?

What do you think?

Some support the higher performance expectations.
• Others question the fairness of evaluation criteria, especially after DEI program cuts.

Morale is already shaky after the 2023 layoffs.
January 17, 2025 at 3:03 AM
The company recently dismantled its DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion) team.
• Third-party fact-checkers were removed as Meta leans into “free speech” policies.

Is this the new Meta identity?

Impacted employees will receive generous severance packages, but Meta plans to refill these positions later in 2025, focusing on AI and next-gen platforms.
January 17, 2025 at 3:03 AM
Zuckerberg described the move as part of a broader push for “higher performance standards.” Employees deemed “low performers” during upcoming reviews will be let go.

This follows last year’s 10,000-person layoff.

What do you think: Clever marketing, or is this a joke taken too far?

Either way, Enron just got the internet talking—again.
December 3, 2024 at 1:06 AM
ICYMI: The original Enron collapsed in 2001 after one of the largest corporate frauds in history. Executives faced jail time, and thousands lost their savings.

This rebrand? A masterclass in dark humor.
December 3, 2024 at 1:06 AM
Merch is the real play here.
The new owners are selling Enron-branded hats and T-shirts.

Their core values now include “repentance,” and the marketing leans into the company’s scandalous history.
December 3, 2024 at 1:06 AM
The kicker? A new “Enron Coin” was teased online and on billboards, sparking crypto buzz.

But it’s all part of the joke—there’s no actual token coming. Sorry, crypto bros.
December 3, 2024 at 1:06 AM
An Arkansas-based LLC (famous for the “Birds Aren’t Real” campaign) bought the Enron trademark for $275 in 2020.

Now they’re using it for satire, complete with a parody relaunch video and cheeky billboards.
