Popular social media platform Instagram began 2023 with a round of organizational changes, including eliminating Technical Program Manager (TPM) roles across the company. According to inside sources, at least 60 employees were informed this week that their positions would be cut.

Alignment with Meta’s flattening management

Impacted workers are being offered the opportunity to reapply and interview for traditional Program Manager roles. However, if they are not selected for the new positions, their employment with Instagram will end in March.

This restructuring aligns with parent company Meta’s push towards “flattening” management hierarchies and increasing efficiency.

Trimming costs and refocusing on priorities

After a year filled with hiring freezes and layoffs, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg has indicated that further workforce reductions may still come as the company looks to trim costs and refocus priorities.

Smaller teams in areas like Reality Labs have already seen job cuts. The phasing out of Technical Program Managers removes a middle management layer at Instagram, possibly portending similar changes across Meta’s family of products.

Current employees are still left wondering where the axe may fall next. The pressure mounts as managers across the organization are instructed to evaluate their departments for potential “wind-downs.” The future remains murky for many Meta staff.
