Meta asks line managers to identify poorly performing staff for firing
"Identify people who need support early, partner with our Employee Relations team to get that support, and move to exit people who are unable to get on track," Saba wrote.
That either means Meta, which has about 72,000 employees, is weak at managing its staff, and allowed itself to be weighed down by rest-and-vesters, or it needs to suddenly ditch a bunch of people and it'll use performance as the excuse rather than layoffs . These moves do not emerge from thin air. Meta's stock prices, along with other major tech giants, plummeted in early February. Continued losses led toMeta's engineering hiring plans for 2022 by 30 percent, and hinted at this latest round of layoffs.
To weed out poor performers, Meta also decided to leave some jobs unfilled, its hope being that those who actually belonged at Meta would rise to meet the challenge of taking on other people's responsibilities.

Association of meat, vegetarian, pescatarian and fish-poultry diets with risk of 19 cancer sites and all cancer: findings from the UK Biobank prospective cohort study and meta-analysis - BMC MedicineBackground The associations of cancer with types of diets, including vegetarian, fish, and poultry-containing diets, remain unclear. The aim of this study was, therefore, to investigate the association of type of diet with all cancers and 19 site-specific incident cancers in a prospective cohort study and then in a meta-analysis of published prospective cohort studies. Methods A total of 409,110 participants from the UK Biobank study, recruited between 2006 and 2010, were included. The outcomes were incidence of all cancers combined and 19 cancer sites. Associations between the types of diets and cancer were investigated using Cox proportional hazards models. Previously published prospective cohort studies were identified from four databases, and a meta-analysis was conducted using random-effects models. Results The mean follow-up period was 10.6 years (IQR 10.0; 11.3). Compared with meat-eaters, vegetarians (hazard ratio (HR) 0.87 [95% CI: 0.79 to 0.96]) and pescatarians (HR 0.93 [95% CI: 0.87 to 1.00]) had lower overall cancer risk. Vegetarians also had a lower risk of colorectal and prostate cancers compared with meat-eaters. In the meta-analysis, vegetarians (Risk Ratio (RR): 0.90 [0.86 to 0.94]) and pescatarians (RR 0.91 [0.86; 0.96]) had lower risk of overall and colorectal cancer. No associations between the types of diets and prostate, breast, or lung cancers were found. Conclusions Compared with meat-eaters, vegetarians and pescatarians had a lower risk of overall, colorectal, and prostate cancer. When results were pooled in a meta-analysis, the associations with overall and colorectal cancer persisted, but the results relating to other specific cancer sites were inconclusive.
