I have little sympathy to be honest.
However what is interesting is this sounds like a company in it's early death throes. They're a social media company that's core products are in decline to competitors like TikTok, and they're desperately trying to diversify.
The "metaverse" was an expensive flop. Now it's pivoting to AI by sacking employees to save costs and redirecting large numbers of the rest away from it's core product. But Meta is way behind in the AI race and seemingly throwing everything at this while ignoring it's core product.
Meta is becoming like IBM; it probably won't disappear but it'll just be another also-ran.
