If you lay off people recently on leave, the rest of your work force remaining now has a much higher average of leave balances and need/likelihood for leave?

In case some may not be aware, it seems this is about FMLA leave. The Family and Medical Leave Act in the United States guarantees a certain amount of time on unpaid leave for certain family and medical situations. The only protection you get from the law is your employer has to offer you your job back if your leave complies with the act.

Otherwise, there is no federally guaranteed paid leave (*) of any type. And it's usually entirely legal to fire people because they carry high (or more commonly low) PTO balances. (California might be a little different on this).

(*) The only other form a federally guaranteed leave I know about is if you are a military reservist or national guard called up to active duty, your employer must allow you to return to your job after completing active duty.

Meta is giving Amazon fierce competition as the evilest employer.

Isn't meta constantly laying off people?

When you have billions rules don't apply, aparantly.

It should be am FMLA lawsuit to sink the son of a bitch... but since ultra wealthy are somehow inherently more powerful than governments it'll be a "slap on the wrist" sized fine. Carry on business as usual.

As if that asshole gives a shit.

I feel like you could do that with just SQL.
