Facebook's parent company Meta rented out Universal Studios Singapore (USS) for its year-end social event, according to an employee.

TikToker @_jinwonshin posted a video of the experience on Dec 23, garnering over 67,200 views.

The 19-second clip shows a group of Meta employees, dressed in identical white T-shirts, gathering in the amusement park. After going for multiple rides, the group also poses with life-sized versions of Sesame Street characters.

"When do we ever get to stroll around like this?" the on-screen caption reads, as the camera pans to the empty streets and queuing lanes. "What a way to end the year! Thank you Meta."

As of 2018, Meta employed more than 1,000 people in Singapore. Earlier this year, it retrenched 5 per cent of its global workforce. It is unclear if the whole of USS was booked out for the employee event.

In September, SPH Media rented USS for a Family Day for more than 1,000 employees, including free rides and meal vouchers.

Supermarket chain Sheng Siong also recently made headlines for its year-end celebrations, as netizens applauded it for catering a lunch for its employees.
