Meta is laying off employees across units including Instagram, WhatsApp and Reality Labs, the Verge reported on Wednesday, citing people familiar with the matter.
据路透社报道,美国的科技新闻网站Verge援引知情人士的话报道称,Meta将在包括Instagram、WhatsApp和Reality Labs等部门裁员。
A Meta spokesperson told Reuters in a statement that a few of its teams were making changes to align with their long-term strategic goals and location strategy.
在一份声明中,Meta一名发言人对路透社表示,一些团队正在进行调整,以符合公司长期的战略目标和定位策略。
"This includes moving some teams to different locations, and moving some employees to different roles. In situations like these when a role is eliminated, we work hard to find other opportunities for impacted employees," the spokesperson said.
发言人说,“包括将一些团队转移到其他地点,并将一些员工转移到不同的工作岗位。在这种情况下,当一个职位被取消时,我们会努力为受影响的员工寻找其他的机会。”
The Verge report did not specify the exact number of job cuts but mentioned that they were small. Meta also did not comment on the numbers.
不过,Verge 的报道并未具体说明裁员的人数,不过提到裁员的规模很小。Meta也没有对裁员人数发表评论。
