Meta has experienced significant layoffs, cutting 3,600 jobs in a recent round, which is part of ongoing job reductions totaling 21,000 positions since 2022. CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that these layoffs were aimed at 'low performers', changing the performance management approach. However, many affected employees dispute this characterization, fearing that hiring managers will view the layoffs negatively affecting their job prospects following the company's negative framing. In response, some laid-off workers are taking steps to publicly defend their records to mitigate potential biases in future job applications.
Kaila Curry, who, until Monday, worked in product content operations at Meta, posted on LinkedIn to preemptively defend her performance against potential hiring biases.
