No, jobs are not created in other countries or regions on aggregate. Of course, some companies might do that, but there were a net job loss in the tech sector all over the world. If you look at the job postings today and you might think that your job is going to Asia/South America/Eastern Europe, but you did not look at the data a few years back. It was crazy. Everybody and their mother was hiring tech workers in my country(Romania, Eastern Europe). Today, I have friends with 4-5 years of experience in Java/Python that are working retail. Also, for the new jobs, nobody is paying 2021-2022 salaries anymore. It's at least 10% less. And no raises on the horizon for the existing workers, inflation was at 14% last year. And of course, more responsibilities.

Staying “hot” in IT is insanely difficult,it is so damn fickle. I worked with ERP (you kids call it dinosaurware). I had to aggressively learn new stuff just to keep my job over 24 years.

8 years into the field and still going strong. One thing I realized is that assets that work hard in best of company’s interests survive while lackluster idiots are gone one way or another.

I think you have learned a valuable lesson. It really depends on who is running the show as to how things go. Get use to it. You’ll sleep better.
@bitwise2832
The reasons. Greed, off-shoring, mediocrity...the corporations just want to provide mediocre services...Excellence is a thing of the past.
@thomasshamp6031
Most tech jobs I’ve had have been toxic anyway. Good riddance to working in tech. Not an “8-hour a day” job. Constant upskilling and stress.
@bjbegui
It would be great to talk about alternatives to tech...I would love to get out of this mess

Currently we give industry a 15% discount (OPT program) to hire a foreign student over a local student. Hundreds of thousands (literally) of OPT visas were granted last year. Why not extend the OPT discount, to all students and the unemployed, as part an apprenticeship program. Such a program could last 3 years, and if the worker leaves early, they pay back the 15% discount. A big impediment to training local workers in the U.S., is that the local worker can leave at anytime, taking their training and getting a better salary. This makes it impossible for industry to justify training local workers. With a 3 year window, industry could repurpose already highly skilled software engineers in AI projects. This would put everyone, foreign student, local students on the same playing field, and give us a chance to re-platform our U.S. workforce.

human resource is commodity. when the company say: we are globle Human Resource, you should know what is behind "Global". Getting education in U.S.A, you have disadvantage comparing someone in India. You should not compete someone in Indian. Not because Indian are smarter, you know why
@satchie01
When companies hire people out shore, they’re not paying them the same as within the USA, they’re paying them sensibly less, around 50% of what they used to pay to people in the states.
@ForPopli
Robot replacement. If you want a tech job wear a robo costume to the interview.
@gavel8888
Honey, they didn’t cut us because of outsourcing. They need people to work on American time. The cuts happened because of H-1B visa workers. Right now, there are about 700,000 H-1B workers, with many in the tech industry. Let's thank Elon for this!

I’m in the middle of getting my degree.so you telling me that I just wasted years of my life?
@manw3bttcks
My suggestion, try to find a job with a requirement to have a secret clearance, it wouldn't be as big a pain as a Top Secret (secret is mainly a paperwork clearance, there's no poly). There's no way those jobs can be done by some remote person in another country (obviously).
@0o0Nevo0o0
There are jobs at university in data science/data Analytics.
@ThrowBackZone
Wow, didn’t realize how much of an impact remote work and AI have had. Does this mean we’ll see even fewer high-paying tech jobs in the US? 😮

If you are an idea person, make a new product and start an endeavor of your own. Now is the time. Use the ever evolving AI tools and that cheap labor to work for you.
