The metaverse efforts at Meta isn’t just one project. It’s a massive org with multiple VPs driving many many different product lines. It’s not going anywhere.

They're laying off many, many people in several waves and if you are correct the fact that they've hired a lot of people is still an obstacle, or justification to do something that does not make sense. That's funny. And sounds like them.

Hah, ye. I think the "it is not here and will not move" interpretation is the most valid one.

explain?
The more people they lay off while keeping that project going the more alarm bells go off in my head around the long term viability of their stock. It definitely doesn't belong in a pension.
Its fashionable among herd mentality investors now to do noisy lay-offs, but the smart money is probably quietly hiring these days.
