Facebook's parent company, Metablardfarm Inc., laid off 11,000 of its employees a few days ago. This is seen as the largest layoff in the history of Meta Company. This layoff may include employees working in the united states with H1B visas. Due to this, many foreign employees may data-face immigration problems. mark zuckerberg has said that the administration is helping the company's employees working on H1B visas. Even in the unemployment situation, this seems to have given a lot of comfort among the Meta employees. In statement about this, if you are working in the US on a visa, this can have a big impact on them. He consoled that Meta Company will help all the family. His special immigration officers will help them.
Employees working in the US on an H1B visa can work there for 3 years. It can also be extended for the same period of 3 years. In case you get fired while working on this visa, you get 60 days. You can join another job within that period. If not, you must leave the United States. indian IT workers are the most likely to benefit from H1B visas at tech companies in the US. So indians are the most affected by this layoff and immigration problem. It seems that not only indians but also Chinese may have been affected by this layoff. While 13% of the employees of Meta Company have been laid off, even though there is no clear data on the number of indians who will be affected by this, it seems that indian employees may be greatly affected.
Meta said that the company will provide 16 weeks of pay, 2 weeks of additional pay, medical insurance for the employee and his family for the next 6 months, and help to find another job. It is in this situation that Meta company has also taken the action of dismissal. Earlier, a few days ago, twitter employees were laid off in a big way.
