#MetaPlansLayoffs Reports surfacing in mid-March 2026 indicate that Meta is preparing for its most significant round of job cuts to date, potentially impacting 20% or more of its global workforce. This translates to roughly 15,000 to 16,000 employees based on current headcount. While Meta spokesperson Andy Stone has officially called these reports "speculative," internal sources suggest that senior leadership has already been instructed to begin planning for the reductions.
