|
6.2
Meta plans to cut about 10% of employees in its Reality Labs division, the New York Times reported on January 13, 2026, citing sources. The unit, which employs roughly 15,000 people and develops VR headsets, smart glasses and metaverse products, could see announcements as soon as Tuesday and disproportionate losses in metaverse-focused teams. The move follows over $60 billion in Reality Labs losses since 2020.
