This. Every big company I know of is offshoring to India and Eastern Europe currently. It has nothing to do with AI.

- mywittyname 2y agoThis has been occurring for a while, no? Half of my team at an old job was in Romania.
- alephnerd 2y agoAfter the pandemic, P&L leadership functions moved abroad as well. A lot of mid-level management on visas were laid off during 2020-21 during the depth of COVID, and this had to return. Now, the SVP for a core Engineering Org or your PM Director owning an entire BU might be in Bangalore, Tel Aviv, or Cluj. If ICs to mid/upper level leadership are in the foreign office, it doesn't make as much sense to keep hiring domestically for Product or Engineering roles.
- mywittyname 2y agoYeah. This makes sense, particularly vis-a-vis leadership.
