It's easy to belittle the rebranding, but ultimately I have a fair amount of respect for this kind of "bet the company" shift in focus. There's a good chance it doesn't pay off, with either the metaverse thing going nowhere, or Meta not being the ones at the forefront of it; but I wouldn't read it as "desperation" per se, more as recognition that sentiment towards the current products have shifted in a way that's likely irreversible. So unless you have ethical reservations, which is a perfectly respectable position to take, i'd accept the offer and learn/earn as much as you can.
