I thought I just read about layoffs in all the big support centers in India? Are those similar jobs? Where is IBM, DXC et. al. sending the jobs or is that all just unrelated or my bad memory?
For some reason I thought the general trend lately was many Western countries were bringing support jobs back to their own countries.
IMO the reduction of workforce IT / Software related field is worldwide. Now place I work is hiring whole bunch of people but just on basis of that I wouldn't say in general is industry is creating whole lot of jobs.
I think going forward the hiring would be at best replacing people who joined in 80s in case those jobs are not totally automated away.
