I’m not sure if this is just a sign of the times for Meta or a comment on Big Tech as a whole.

My old company tested out it for a while. It was awful.
It still used some form of engagement based algorithm, so useless shit was at the top of your feed and actual useful information was buried and easy to miss.
I know a certain international home improvement company that uses that shit for everyday communication between support teams…

Good, HR will have to go back to sending their communications to our work emails instead of expecting us to browse the company’s Facebook to keep up to date

They use it internally. I wonder if they will continue to.

My money is on: replace it with some half-assed AI “enhanced” prototype.

It this actually true? For real?!
Can’t wait to go back from my parental leave and not be the last one to hear about important announcements because they were posted on FB. F that.
We are discontinuing Workplace from Meta so we can focus on building AI and metaverse technologies that we believe will fundamentally reshape the way we work,
Lol, can’t make this shit up!

Shopify laid off a couple thousand people, then “chaos monkey’d” the entire company just over a year ago, and forced everyone to open an FB Workplace acct as though it was going to boost productivity somehow having us split our comms between slack (which already sucks) that we’ve been using for years and some half assed afterthought Zuck’s team came up with (at least the public facing piece) leading into their own layoff waves.
I left Shopify happily and voluntarily and I’m not gonna pour one out for FB Workplace, at all. Good riddance to bad garbage.

But my company with 20k employees use it. It’s kind of interesting in our context
I wonder what we’re going to do. Don’t tell me that the reason that the MDM has installed MS teams on my work phone is related to this news…
