Zuckerberg will hire new employees after the layoff period

Mark Zuckerberg, head of Facebook's regulatory body Mater, will walk a new path after the layoff is over. It is reported that he will start the process of hiring new staff. Recently, Zuckerberg himself announced the layoff of 10,000 employees.

Zuckerberg said on Tuesday (March 14) that he is going to walk the path of layoffs. 10,000 meta workers will be employed in the initial phase. The organization has stopped the recruitment of another 5 thousand vacancies for the time being. New staff will be hired only after this retrenchment phase is over.

Four months ago, Meta once again walked the path of mass retrenchment. Around 11,000 workers lost their jobs in one blow. Which is about 13 percent of the total workforce of the organization.

At present the process of recruitment of staff in Meta has been completely suspended. No one is being recruited. Zuckerberg will hire again when the layoff process is over. As a result job seekers will get new opportunities in this organization.

Meta activists are suffering from fear since the beginning of 2023. Zuckerberg referred to this year as the year of Meta's performance. After that, workers speculated that there might be a second round of layoffs. Who will lose their jobs, who will keep their jobs, cannot be said for sure. After Zuckerberg's announcement on Tuesday, fears of layoffs came true.

META authorities said that the layoffs will be phased in the next 4 months. However, it is not specified which country Zuckerberg is going to focus on. In this situation, the question arises, what will be the future of Indian workers? It is also not clear in the meta announcement.

Incidentally, the microblogging site Twitter laid off a large number of workers from several countries around the world after the acquisition of Twitter by American billionaire Elon Musk. A couple of weeks after that, Meta began laying off staff.
