Apparently Facebook (oh, wait, it is Meta now, how could I forget) cares about employees as human beings as little as it cares of its useds as human beings. Good to have these kind of things surface and brought to attention. Some counterweight against the rose-colored glasses, through which many people see Face...Meta.

Working for FB/Meta is a questionable choice in itself, though.

Going on on the whole fb/meta thing, I was wondering why people don't do the same for Alphabet. Everyone still calls it Google. But for facebook, the name was dropped almost immediately. Isn't that strange?

Might be for historical reasons. Was Google first or Alphabet first there? Also because of time. In Internet terms it has been ages since Google became big. Little is heard about what Alphabet is actually doing, except being the parent company of Google. I couldn't name one thing.
