Facebook parent company Meta announced extensive layoffs on Wednesday, shedding 11,000 jobs, or about 13% of its staff, amid an industrywide slowdown that has rattled Silicon Valley in recent months.

当地时间11月9日，脸书母公司Meta宣布大规模裁员，表示将裁员1.1万人，相当于13%的人员缩减。近几个月来，整个行业的放缓令硅谷感到不安。

The cuts represent the first sweeping workforce reduction the company has undertaken since it was founded in 2004 and the latest sign that once-invincible tech behemoths are in a moment of reckoning.

此次裁员是该公司自2004年成立以来的首次大规模裁员，也是曾经不可战胜的科技巨头面临清算时刻的最新迹象。

Calling the layoffs "some of the most difficult changes we've made in Meta's history," Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said the company overhired during the pandemic, assuming the ultra-rapid growth would keep going.

Meta首席执行官马克·扎克伯格称裁员是“我们在Meta历史上所做出的一些最艰难的改变”，他表示，公司在疫情期间过度招聘，以为超高速增长会继续下去。

"Not only has online commerce returned to prior trends, but the macroeconomic downturn, increased competition, and ads signal loss have caused our revenue to be much lower than I'd expected," Zuckerberg wrote in an message to employees. "I got this wrong, and I take responsibility for that."

扎克伯格在致Meta公司的全员信中表示，“不仅电子商务恢复了以前的趋势，而且宏观经济低迷、竞争加剧和广告信号损失导致我们的收入远低于我的预期。我错了，我对此负责。”

Meta, which has around 87,000 employees, has recently undergone belt-tightening measures like hiring freezes and eliminating nonessential travel.

Meta拥有大约87,000名员工，最近已经采取了紧缩措施，比如冻结招聘和取消不必要的差旅。
