"Today, a few teams at Meta are making changes to ensure resources are aligned with their long-term strategic goals and location strategy," Arnold said. "This includes moving some teams to different locations, and moving some employees to different roles. In situations like this when a role is eliminated, we work hard to find other opportunities for impacted employees."

Employees have confirmed the news on social media, including Jane Manchun Wong, a former tech journalist who joined Threads in 2023.

In July, Meta reported a $4.5 billion quarterly loss in its Reality Labs division, which runs metaverse and VR projects.

It is not yet known how many employees are affected by Thursday's layoffs.
