Tech is outsourcing jobs overseas
Seen many job openings for engineers outside of the U.S. The great reset is happening… Google, Microsoft, Adobe, Dropbox, Lyft, Rivian, Walmart, Box, etc all have a ton of SWE positions open for places like: Nairobi, Kenya Sao Paulo, Brazil Cairo, Egypt Warsaw, Poland Bangalore, India Noida, India Belgrade, Serbia
Noticed too
I saw the same at Pixel and Nest (Google). Hiring in Asia (TW)
Same here hiring aggressively in Poland
They’ll keep hiring people in the west if they’ll make the company more than what the company pays them. But giving priority to talent in LCOL yes that will happen for sure.
All the executives are following this trend. Heard it at WD also, hiring in India and TW mostly. Hopefully I’m retiring in time before all tech engineerings are oversea, and not recommending my kids to pursue software anymore because of this trend and AI. This trend will hurt STEM education in the US, what a shame.
This has been happening for decades. Whats new?
On the contrary I see almost no direct jobs in my local market, most openings are through contracting companies like the one I’m working in 😞
Junior and mid jobs abroad, principal staff hiring here
I was laid off from lyft and a month later saw a LinkedIn job post for my old role. Location: Canada 😡
Time to go back to india
