Social media giant significantly layoffs 80% of contract workers, raising concerns about platform operations.

According to reports, a well-known social media platform has recently made significant reductions in the number of external collaborators. Sources reveal that the platform has terminated contracts for approximately 4,400 contract workers, which accounts for about 80% of its total 5,500 contract workers.

This measure is expected to have a significant impact on the platform's content review and infrastructure maintenance work. In particular, there may be some challenges in maintaining the normal operation of the website.

Surprisingly, the platform's full-time employees stated that they did not receive any internal notification before the contractors they were working with were dismissed. This sudden personnel change may cause a certain degree of confusion regarding team collaboration and work handover.

This decision seems to be one of the measures taken by the new management of the platform to cut costs and improve operational efficiency. However, such large-scale layoffs have also raised concerns from the outside about the future direction and service quality of the platform.

As the technology industry faces overall economic pressure, similar personnel adjustments may occur in other companies. This event has also sparked discussions about the hiring strategies of tech companies and the protection of employee rights.
