SAN FRANCISCO: Facebook on March 26 said its Silicon Valley offices will begin reopening to workers in May after a yearlong pandemic shutdown, but without perks such as free food and commuter shuttles.

The Menlo Park headquarters and other locations in the region will start with 10% of “maximum seated capacity”, the social media giant said.
