This is a convenient strawman for companies but I think it's no longer true that the people being layed off stem from that time: https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/META/meta-platform...

Someone made a great post about other companies who have shed their 'covid excess' but are still citing that period as a motivation for their decisions.
