IT tards coping about outsourcing
Recently Canada Life outsourced their whole IT to India, then a few months later my friend was layoff from Skip the Dishes as their outsourced their customer support to the Philippines, now today me and 30 others were also layoff from our IT roles as it will be also outsourced to an Indian company as well.
Not against outsource companies but you should be allowed to outsourcing to local companies
I will try to find another job in IT but I am very disheartened with the industry overall, sorry for the rant, I hope we all find success in our careers

People have been saying AI stealing jobs isn't just Artificial Intelligence, it is All Indians.
As long as it looks like security, it doesn't matter if it's cheaper.
The actual crazy thing about it is that literally so many breaches have been directly related to outsourcing IT overseas. It blows my mind that any company would do it given the risk of not having the ability to directly hold responsible parties which have allowed for these incidents to occur.
To be honest most of these companies are just playing with fire because it's not if it will happen it's when they will realize that their data is routinely funneled out of their company.
Sad state of affairs very likely related to the fact that at least in the United States companies that have a breach are held to virtually no accountability by the government outside of potential lawsuits.
Not to be sorry for the rant - I see the same trend here in Europe and it looks good on the initial presentation but in the long run it's frustrating for everyone incl endusers.
But who cares, right?
At least I see some companies now trying to get people back but these jobs are jot fun as just in the sandwich to be yelled at… sorry no answer from me:(
Someone call the EEOC oh wait they don't care about yts
My company has been pushing the non-Indians out of the company slowly over the past few years. Indian colleagues have been given promotions, new hires are all Indians. Some of them are very hard working and talented, however there are also some questionable new hires which seemed to have faked there way through the hiring process and have no idea how to do anything.

You forgot the "no code platform" step where they try to push salesforce on all the devs which causes them to leave.

Street pooping isn't the #1 thing in a sexy Indian dude's blood, it's nepotism. The real reason India will never become a superpower isn't economic, it's that the jeet mind is fundamentally incapable of grasping the concept of merit over hooey caste division. !antibharatiya

Jeets in the West will insist that the caste system doesn't exist anymore and that it was only was bad because of the Britishers, and then spend several hours explaining that the main reason India sucks is because of the dalits and OBCs.

Indian CEOs hire other Indians but unlike their middle managers they don't do it out of nepotism, rather it's just part of their neverending quest to cut costs while doing enough work to keep the board of directors saars happy. Consumers sneed while Google and Microsoft constantly cancel projects that have only been active for a few years while the actual quality of the products they make decline. But the flip side is guys like Nadela make line go up, and that makes shareholders happy.
There should be no surprise that investment cults and scams like Theranos have many Pahjeets and Pakis behind them. The stock market being mostly based on figuring out vibes and foretelling future returns is basically the South Asian's home turf, since we spent millennia refining these very skills as part of our daily lives.

Jeets cause me more stress in my career than software bugs or actual breaches combined. This of course is only if they decide to log on this week.

One of the funniest things I learned about Jeets is there are Jeet Content Moderation teams from social media companies whose main job is to police Jeet users ; but in actuality just hand over the rules and regulations to outside Jeets for them to abuse the rules and the content moderation teams are in fact bribable enough to let their scam shit run rampant domestically.

Have you considered getting a job that isn't helpdesk that actually requires skills? You say "IT roles" to be ambiguous but you are basically the same as the person I call to report my fiber is down and they need to send an engineer out to fix it. You don't work in technology, you are customer support.
R-slurs who don't understand economics say that. Technology increases demand for skills because it increases productivity, it replaces tasks not humans.
Its not even like this is slightly ambiguous. Slavery was dying out early C19 until the cotton gin made them insanely valuable as it massively increased negro productivity. There is 200 years of natural experiments on the effects technology has on labor demand, a quick google would let them know they are r-slurs.
I don't expect people working customer support jobs to be of even average intelligence but even fricking r-slurs would know to question presuppositions when they may impact your money.
R-slurs who don't understand economics and think they are entitled to a job without learning new skills also say this.
Do the needful and get them a coffee, its all your good for now.

Ah yes cause Rajeev Amdalakamala definitely deserved the job with his University of Temanda India degree and his cousin just so happens to work at where he's applying.
Only r-slurs with no experience think everybody gets jobs solely based on merit
Ah makes sense why you have that take

It's not about them getting jobs it's about you losing yours. Consider learning something more complex than an Indian sweatshop can provide.

I said this before in some other slacker thread but the issue is NOT that people are actively losing their jobs, its that NEW people trying to get into the market can't get one.
Why would you hire a new graduate when you could hire someone else with maybe good enough skills that'll do the work for bottom barrel pay.
To ignore that issue, being youth trying to enter the workforce, will lead only to further issues once skilled workers retire (coming soon), most of the existing workforce have gotten to higher positions leaving a larger number of open low ladder jobs which keep getting taken by Indians and these "experienced" indians people will eventually be running the show, hiring from the workpool of the billion cousins back home. All of it leaving Americans out with nothing because its better to be cynical and say "well erm, get more experience lol lmao" when you can't if every entry level job is inundated with jeets.
Hiring managers already can't handle some 50 applications, now times it by a thousand and expect them to find quality

If new people weren't r-slurred this also wouldn't be an issue

Right now, I'm a click away from using an SQL injection attack to gain access to the database of the website and gain your login credentials, as well as your IP address. I'll then proceed to leak your IP address onto my hacker forums, and then using an IP locator, I'll easily find your house and your name. With that I can access your social media accounts and proceed to ruin your life. You think I'm bluffing? You think that just because a bunch of 7 year old dipshits say they can "hack", but actually can't, that I can't either? Let me shatter that facade for you. Using my team of hackers, we can trace what websites you've visited and what keystrokes you've used, and with that, I can get into your parents' bank account. I can drain it and make you dirt poor. Have you ever felt what it's like to be homeless? Well, you're about to. I can also use cross-site scripting to redirect your web browser to one of my private sites, and download child porn onto your computer and get your parents locked up in prison. I'm your worst fricking nightmare, and I'm about to make you endure living Heck. I'm nowhere and everywhere at the same time. Have fun regretting your existence, shithead.

My internet company uses Indians for tech support but they run their sexy Indian dude voices through an ai and make them all sound like Microsoft Sam. But you can tell they are obviously Indian by the SARs and the grammar
