Why is the immediate response to criticize? Every single time I've seen layoffs discussed people always ask why it can't feel like more of a conversation and less like a bandaid getting ripped off (because it sucks to be part of the bandaid). Employees want to be included in the conversation. It seems that's exactly what is being done here. How is that insulting?! I mean we also hear the traditional rationale for why you can't announce layoffs in advance but it doesn't seem absurd to try it since there seems to be remarkably little data on the subject. Further, if you're considering letting 10k people go, I don't see how it's bad to have the loose ones leave of their own volition. I actually liked the tone and detail of this post. It certainly seems Meta is preparing to fix more than "100% a management failure"...
