Granted my company is much, much smaller but they have leaned into work from home. They didn't renew the office lease on our larger space and instead just moved to a small we work space for a few folks that like to work in the office. The CEO actually loves it because it saves the company a ton in rent/leasing.

But Meta is probably just trying to triage folks without having to pay severance or unemployment.
