For the second consecutive year, Meta has reduced equity incentives for most of its employees, cutting the annual stock option allocations for the majority of its staff by approximately 5% this year, following a roughly 10% reduction last year. Meanwhile, CEO Mark Zuckerberg is investing billions of dollars to recruit top artificial intelligence researchers and build data centers, with capital expenditures expected to reach as high as $130 billion by 2026. He is also luring talent from peers with high salaries. To improve capital efficiency and appease investors, Meta laid off about 1,500 positions in its loss-making metaverse division in January this year.
