Show Notes
Former Meta employee, Nicolas Franchet, is suing the company for age discrimination in its layoffs, alleging workers over forty were more likely to be cut. Despite positive performance reviews and a special stock award from CEO Mark Zuckerberg, Franchet lost his job and nearly $12 million in unvested shares. This case highlights a pattern in Silicon Valley tech firms, with HP, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Google, and IBM facing similar suits. Franchet seeks unspecified damages, drawing attention to fairness concerns in tech layoffs.
