Meta has fired 24 employees at its Los Angeles office for misusing their daily meal credits to buy non-food items like toothpaste, detergent, and even wine glasses. The misuse was discovered during a broader HR investigation.
One employee, earning $400,000 annually, admitted using meal credits for groceries when not eating at the office. While some workers faced dismissal for repeated violations, others with minor offenses were reprimanded but kept their jobs, raising questions about the misuse of employee perks in tech companies.
