Meta is cutting roughly 8,000 employees—10% of its workforce—on May 20, with another 6,000 open roles being closed. The announcement, made via an internal memo from chief people officer Janelle Gale, has sent workers into a monthlong limbo. Employees are flooding internal forums and the anonymous app Blind with anxiety, dark humor, and resignation.
