Ammon News - Meta is slashing hundreds of employees in Silicon Valley as the tech giant heavily invests in artificial intelligence and weighs axing over 20% of its workforce.

The Facebook parent company is cutting nearly 200 workers in the San Francisco Bay Area, according to new state filings.

The reductions will hit 124 employees in Burlingame, Calif. and another 74 in nearby Sunnyvale, with the cuts taking effect in late May and all affected positions permanently eliminated, filings cited by the San Francisco Chronicle show.

“Teams across Meta regularly restructure or implement changes to ensure they’re in the best position to achieve their goals,” a Meta spokesperson told The Post.

“Where possible, we are finding other opportunities for employees whose positions may be impacted.”

The company added that it was still hiring for critical roles and that its headcount as of Dec. 31, 2025 was 78,865 — a 6% increase year-over-year.
