Polymarket traders are assigning a 67% probability that total U.S. tech sector layoffs in 2026 will exceed 2025 levels. This sentiment is fueled by internal turmoil at Meta, where employee morale has reached historic lows ahead of an upcoming reduction of approximately 8,000 roles. While Meta reported strong first-quarter revenue, the company is facing internal pushback regarding AI-driven workplace monitoring and significant capital expenditure increases, reflecting a broader trend of restructuring and workforce anxiety across the tech industry.
