Gotta get creative with your layoffs when you already did massive layoffs but still need to please wall street.

Because that's part of the deal. They get free credits for 3 meals a day as an added bonus but they broke the very simple terms that came with those. That makes the employees untrustworthy since they can't keep a very simple promise.

Also they probably have to spend them that way because it becomes plain income otherwise, which means it will be taxed accordingly. And that will ruin this benefit for anyone.

Fuck meta and stuff, but this is a pretty great deal for employees.
