2026/04/18 14:11 財經中心／彭淇昀報導 在AI浪潮推動下，社群平台Facebook母公司Meta Platforms傳出「大規模裁員」消息。有內部人士指出，Meta預計於5月20日展開首波裁員，規模約占全球員工數10%，約8000人，且公司內部評估，下半年恐還將進行第二波人力縮減。 Meta預計於5月20日展開首波裁員，規模約占全球員工數10%，約8000人，且公司內部評估，下半年恐還將進行第二波人力縮減。（圖／翻攝自PIXABAY） 根據《路透社》報導，儘管Meta近年營收與獲利維持高檔，2025年淨利達600億美元（約新台幣1.8兆元），但公司決策重心已轉向AI發展，執行長祖克柏（Mark Zuckerberg）正持續擴大相關投資，並以降低人力成本作為支撐策略之一，目標是打造更扁平化、效率更高的組織架構。 消息人士透露，這波裁員並非一次性措施。除5月的行動外，Meta內部仍在規劃後續調整，整體裁員比例不排除進一步擴大，實際幅度將取決於AI技術在優化流程與取代部分管理功能上的進展。 從產業面來看，類似趨勢正在科技業擴散。包括亞馬遜（Amazon）近幾個月裁撤3萬名員工、金融科技公司Block也在2月進行裁員，企業普遍將原因指向AI帶來的效率提升與成本結構重整。根據全球科技業裁員情況網站Layoffs.fyi報告指出，2026年至今科技業裁員人數已達約7.3萬人，2024年全球科技業共15.3萬人失業，顯示產業正加速轉型。 回顧過去，Meta曾在2022年底至2023年初進行大規模裁撤，當時影響約2.1萬名員工，並將該階段定調為提升效率的重要轉折。不過，相較當時因疫情後成長預期修正所引發的人事調整，此次裁員更偏向長期策略布局。 另外，為配合AI發展方向，Meta也同步調整內部資源配置。原隸屬元宇宙部門「Reality Labs」的部分團隊已被重新編組，轉往新成立的「Applied AI」部門，負責開發具備自動化執行與程式撰寫能力的系統。 針對相關裁員規劃，Meta目前尚未對外做出正式說明。
