META, which owns Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp, fired dozens of office employees in Los Angeles for using a battery of $ 25 for a purchase of products and household goods. Employees say that sometimes they had lunch at home and did not want the voucher to disappear in vain, writes The Guardian.
It is noted that the company usually provides employees of large offices and headquarters in Silicon Valley with free food in its canteens. Those who work in small offices are issued by vouchers for daily three meals a day, which can be ordered through the supply services of Ubereats and Grubhub food. Vouchers include $ 20 for breakfast, $ 25 per lunch and the same amount for dinner.

The company conducted an internal investigation and found out that some employees ordered food home. Others reportedly spent 25-dollar coupons not on food, but on products, household goods and hygiene products, such as tea, toothpaste, washing powder, napkins and glasses for wine.
It is reported that more than 20 employees were accused of abuse of the system and fired. Others who “only occasionally violated the rules” received reprimands.

On an anonymous platform for BLIND messages, one of the employees said that she used the voucher for other purposes, because she was at home. She pleaded guilty and was dismissed. “What is happening is surrealistic,” the employee wrote.
It is noted that the dismissal of employees takes place against the background of a new plan for the restructuring company, which provides for the dismissal and movement of employees from WhatsApp, Instagram and Reality Labs units. The latest mass reduction occurred in 2022 and 2023, when META head Mark Zuckerberg ordered to dismiss 21 thousand employees of the company.
