I'm on the other side of the fence in BigCo and from where I'm sitting we're not hiring any Americans because we're in the middle of the biggest outsourcing push I've ever seen.
The take seems to be "if your job can be done from Lake Tahoe it can be done from Bangalore". What's different this time around is the entire tech organization is being outsourced leadership and all. Additionally, Data Science and other major tech-adjacent roles are also affected.
For us, our hiring rate for tech and tech-adjacent rolls has been zero in one US for several years. 100% is attributable to outsourcing. 0% to AI.
