Meta is facing a lawsuit from 26 former employees who allege the company used flawed AI-driven performance metrics to make layoff decisions. The plaintiffs claim these metrics failed to account for employees taking protected leaves for reasons such as illness, pregnancy, or disability, effectively penalizing them for exercising their legal rights.
