Might as well just move the whole company to India. The software industry will be consolidated there in 20yrs just like manufacturing went to China.
They will declare it a state of national security later down the road, when the companies all did this to save money and increase their salaries. Companies aren't people and they have no loyalty to the country they are in, despite what people try to push. It's business and profits come first always.
- twelve40 2y agoThe companies could have done that for the last 20 years at least, but didn't. Why? Layoffs aside (70k at Facebook is obscene), instead of India we now get RTO mandates.
- cudgy 2y agoRTO mandates and layoffs are related … RTO mandates get people to quit (avoid severance and some direct layoffs)
- danudey 2y agoThey're already testing moving manufacturing to India and profits to Ireland, so why not keep it up?
- mostlysimilar 2y agoGovernment needs to step in and prevent this. Massive taxes on any payroll leaving the country. Corporations will always act this way, we need to fight back using the only lever big enough. Also we should be talking about unionizing again.

- mostlysimilar 2y agoThere are plenty of American software engineers interested in making software and getting paid for it. Let the ones that are running a race to the bottom leave if that's what they want to do.
