               Reorganizing the company and creating Facebook Reality Labs to house its profit-draining virtual reality investments is useful for Wall Street. It was the same for Alphabet: It let Google’s parent put the wildly speculative and unprofitable parts of the company in a “here be dragons” portion of the P&amp;L. Alphabet’s moonshots haven’t quite hit the moon, but the structure has worked for the company. Alphabet is worth $1.5 trillion more now than when it was formally called Google, but of course that’s about a lot more than just the name change.

               What Zuckerberg said at the unveiling yesterday is that Facebook has been under the thumb of smartphone developers, mostly Apple, but also Google. The social networking giant has lost some of its authority over the products it creates. Now, it is building a world that it controls.

             I am reluctant to say that Zuckerberg’s vision of the future, where we all learn and shop and live in some virtual world that Facebook controls, is not going to happen. Can Facebook will it into being? Maybe. Zuckerberg has been right about the future before. Is it a good thing for the world if he is right and this is a thing that Facebook designs and controls? That’s another question.

The proposal would allow automakers to offer a $4,500 tax credit, on top of other credits, to buyers of electric vehicles that are made in the U.S. with union labor. That excludes most foreign car manufacturers, who opposed the bill, because most do not use union labor at their American assembly plants.

             We’re reacting to overwhelming circumstances, so we’re in constant fight-or-flight mode, and it taxes us. There are different sources causing this pressure — systemic issues, lack of fairness rooted in societal or organizational problems — and that is bigger than any individual. And then there is overwork, either by economic necessity or in environments where people are passionate and trying to prove themselves at all costs.

             Burnout is not new, but the pandemic has exacerbated it. People are exhausted and disengaged. They feel alienated. We’ve never seen a more cynical group of workers, and it’s across the spectrum. It’s true for essential workers — nurses, police and firefighters — and lawyers and investment bankers. And it’s manifesting in a mass exodus of employees.

             No! It is a workplace problem. Managers play a huge role in operations and inefficiencies that create stress. That’s beginning to be understood. Before, employers wanted to keep people at work with perks — yoga, laundry, meals. But deep breathing won’t make people feel better if no one is paying attention to much more fundamental things like communication.

             Societal solutions might be mandating paid leave or passing laws recognizing a worker’s right not to be online at all hours, as exists in France. At the organizational level, leaders are responsible and there are a lot of things they can do — check in, ask questions and recognize boundaries because inattention can lead to catastrophic impacts for everyone.
