Zuckerberg’s Terminated Several Employees After Voucher Misuse

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta has fired staff after discovering they exploited the company's meal voucher system for non-food purchases. Employees in Meta's Los Angeles office were sacked for using $25 vouchers, meant for food deliveries, to buy household items like laundry detergent and wine glasses. 

This incident underscores Meta's recent efforts to curb the misuse of employee perks, which have historically been generous to encourage office presence and extended work hours. The company has been gradually cutting back on such benefits, indicating a shift towards more stringent financial control.

This event is part of a broader strategy at Meta to enhance efficiency, reflected in not just the recent terminations but also in previous significant layoffs. The misuse of meal vouchers was seen as a breach of trust, leading to immediate action from Meta. The company's approach now seems to prioritize fiscal responsibility over employee perks, signaling a cultural shift where every benefit provided must directly contribute to the company's operational goals or face elimination or stricter oversight.
