One thing I've learned in my career: eventually they will hire a new shiny management who has no idea who or what is a valuable asset and in their infinite wisdom fire all the most valuable assets.

The person who was viewed as a most valuable asset, and got exceptions is of course still safe then!

That is not relevant to this conversation which is about retaining managers the company views as talented in light of a no promotions policy. It’s almost guaranteed Meta will give managers they think are important to retain secret comp increases (bonuses, RSUs out of band) to make up for the lack of an on-paper promotion.
