11k META Layoffs (Leaked Video of Zuckerberg)

"I know how you are feeling, I know there must be a range of different emotions, um... I want to say, y'know up front, that I take full responsibility for this decision, um, I'm the founder and CEO, I'm responsible for the health of our company, um, for our direction, um, and for deciding how we execute that, including things like this, and this was ultimately my call. Um, and it was, it was one of the hardest calls that I've had to make, in the 18 years of running the company, um, and one of why it's hard is, obviously, it has a big impact on your lives, um, but also, for our mission--we're losing people who, you've really put your heart and soul into this place, and, each of you is talented, and passionate, um, each of you has played a role in making META the success that it is, and um, no matter what team you may of worked on, each of you played a role in contributing to the product that billions of people use to connect everyday, um".

Mark Zuckerberg just announced the tech company would lay off more than 11,000 workers. Meanwhile, Elon Musk laid off 7,500 Twitter employees. Fascinating.
