Summary
- Meta will use AI as a criterion for evaluating employee performance from 2026, focusing on AI-driven results and productivity.
- The company will allow employees to use AI such as Metamate and Gemini to write self-assessments and feedback, starting with the December review cycle.
- Meta seeks a native AI culture, with the AI4P initiative aiming to multiply team productivity by five, covering all sectors.
Meta will adopt a new guideline based on “AI-driven impact” in employee performance assessments from 2026. The message, sent this Thursday (11/13) and signed by Meta’s head of personnel, Janelle Gale, informed that employees will be evaluated according to the use of artificial intelligence to deliver results and increase productivity.
Although the metric is not yet formal for this year’s assessments, in the document, obtained by Business InsiderGale encouraged workers to include “AI-powered wins” in self-assessments, ensuring that exceptional impacts are already rewarded.
The company’s change follows a movement by other technology giants, such as Microsoft, Google and Amazon, which would also be pushing employees to use more AI.
AI to write your own review
To accelerate this adoption, Meta had already overhauled its hiring process, allowing candidates to use AI in code interviews, and launched an internal game called “Level Up”.
“As we move toward a native AI future, we want to recognize the people who are helping us get there faster,” Gale wrote in the memo.
In addition to evaluating the use of AI, the company will also use the technology to “facilitate” the evaluation process itself for this year’s evaluation cycle, which begins on December 8th. The company announced a few days ago that it will use the AI Performance Assistant.
According to the memo, employees will be able to use the internal assistant Metamate and even Gemini, from Google, to help write their self-assessment and feedback texts.
In October, Meta’s vice president of metaverse, Vishal Shah, had already spoken about an internal initiative called AI4P (AI for Productivity), which aims to multiply the team’s productivity by five, going beyond “small improvements”.
The goal, according to a statement, was to make AI “a habit, not a novelty” for all sectors — not just engineering. The ambition, according to him, was for AI to accelerate creative and technical processes.
