Meta has indicated that additional workforce reductions could still take place even after announcing plans to cut roughly 10 per cent of its employees, signalling that the company’s restructuring efforts remain ongoing.

The comments emerged during an internal employee meeting, where Chief People Officer Janelle Gale acknowledged that the company could not guarantee the current round of layoffs would be the last.

According to reports, Gale told employees that while leadership would prefer to provide certainty, the company could not commit to avoiding future cuts given the changing business environment and competitive pressures.

Workforce strategy continues to evolve

Meta had previously confirmed plans to reduce around a tenth of its workforce through an internal communication referenced in earlier reports.

The latest leadership remarks suggest the company is now moving from a defined layoff announcement to a more continuous review of team structures, priorities and operating costs.

Executives said the company would continue reshaping teams based on business needs while also attempting to redeploy employees wherever possible.

AI investment drives organisational changes

he discussion also highlighted the growing influence of artificial intelligence on how the company is structuring its workforce.

Chief Executive Officer Mark Zuckerberg reportedly told employees that AI was not directly replacing workers. Instead, he said AI tools were enabling leaner teams to deliver more output and operate with greater efficiency.

At the same time, Meta is continuing to expand investments in its Applied AI division and broader AI infrastructure.
