• Poor decisions occasionally by execs and leadership that do not make sense in terms of company long-term success.

• Laying off 20k+ talented employees when you have one of the largest profit margins in big tech companies simply does not make sense for the long-term success of the company (from financial, public reputation, employee morale, ethics, etc.).

• Poor efficiency implementation models. As a big tech company, it is expected to make much better long-term decisions using data. However, the decisions are made based on old models for short-term gains, which is very ineffective long-term.

Poor decisions are occasionally made by execs and leadership that do not make sense in terms of company long-term success. Meta has great profit margins, and its employees generate much more revenue for the company compared to their cost. (Revenue generated by N employees is more than 3X higher than compensation for those N employees, on average).

Laying off 20k+ talented employees (considering the above equation, recruiting & onboarding costs, etc.), where you have one of the largest profit margins in big tech companies in the world, simply does not make sense for the long-term success of the company (from financial, public reputation, employee morale, ethical, long-term growth, competitiveness, etc., perspectives).

Poor efficiency models are implemented. As a big tech company and a data-driven company, it is expected to make much better data-driven long-term decisions. However, the decisions are made based on old models for short-term gains, which is very ineffective long-term.

(Some examples:

1. Investing enormously in Metaverse without having a strong and reliable long-term financial plan for ROI.
2. The cost of laying off a massive amount of employees could be much higher long-term compared to its short-term gains.)
