Meta to reduce bonuses for some employees: report

Meta Platforms Inc. is planning to reduce bonus payments for some employees and give staff assessments twice a year. The company previously said it would cut 10,000 jobs.

Meta Platforms Inc., which owns Facebook, is expected to reduce bonus payments for some employees and give staff performance reviews more frequently.

The company's employees who receive a rating of "met most expectations" in their year-end reviews in 2023 will be given a smaller percentage of bonus and restricted stock award due in March 2024, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The bonus multiplier for that rating has been lowered from 85% to 65%. The platform will also be assessing staff performance twice a year.

Meta announced earlier this month that it would cut 10,000 jobs this year in a second round of layoffs. 

The company said the layoffs are part of a restructuring that will include eliminating hiring plans for 5,000 job openings and killing off lower-priority projects amid the industry's anticipated economic decline.
