Meta Platforms Inc. is planning additional layoffs to be announced in multiple rounds over the coming months that in total would be roughly of the same magnitude as the 13% cut to its workforce last year, according to people familiar with the matter.

The new cuts, the first wave of which is expected to be announced next week, are likely to hit non-engineering roles especially hard, the people said. The company is also expected to shut down some projects and teams in conjunction with these cuts.

Meta cut roughly 13% of its employees last year, or 11,000 jobs. The cuts this year are expected to reach the same proportion of those who remain, the people said, though the final count of the cumulative cuts expected over the second quarter isn’t yet clear.

Among projects that will be cut are some wearable devices that were in the works at Reality Labs, Meta’s hardware and metaverse division, the people said, suggesting a near-term retreat from efforts to popularize virtual and augmented reality products even as longer-term research efforts continue.

你的理解是对的，其实有效信息就是（1）这次是好几轮裁；（2）总人数跟上轮差不多；（3）non-eng和RL受影响比较大。上轮non-eng受影响已经很大了，但是RL受影响很小，这轮是应该轮到RL了

感觉meta的员工很特别，怎么说呢，花枝招展花样百出，就是visibility特别高：
一打开地里标题加粗是meta的；
xhs上晒收入的也是meta的；
xhs上娇妻多的也是meta的；
裁员吼得最凶的也是meta的；
裁员裁得多的也是meta的；
refresh晒得最多的也是meta的；
refresh挺好的但是哭穷的也是meta的；
女朋友在hf赚钱多酸得不行的也是meta的；
跟我抢房抢得最凶的也是meta的；
买了房以后跟我抢家具的也是meta的；
…etc.

. 千言万语汇成一句，亚麻垃圾啊。

各位等的wsj认证来了，现在市场上的踩踏已经够严重了，这两个月面试的人应该都深有体会，现在又要加一大波high quality candidate，这么看去年第一波裁员真是应了"早裁早上岸"这句话
