Exactly! The mgmt of the above stated firms sucks, they had no vision or a sense of direction, they make bad decisions and when they are asked questions like Sikka (infosys CEO was asked) Why do you earn millions per year and why do you take 50+% hike and still are unable to deliver then the hide behind "automation and AI" :)
it is mediocre CEOs and C*Os and a lot of other folks which are causing this downturn plus investors too, Google "eliott management letter" to get an indepth real reason behind this wave of "layoffs due to automation and AI".
