Hiring someone in India is about 50% of the cost of hiring someone in India. Companies like Google and Meta generate up to 75% of the code with AI.
What will be left for humans in the US?
Let's say that 50% of the US engineers can be replaced by AI in the next years, and the GCC will ramp according to plan, will there be any US tech jobs left, except for senior architects and some SW managers interfacing with the business?
@jd Not the commenter, but I think hey mean Rational Unified Process. OC dating themselves cuz it’s 20+ yo, but from what I’ve heard the company was big into RUP solving everything. As a mainframer. There’s a new shiny object every could years. Tiny and others have bought them all.
The government should tax each petition in the following way:
$250K for petitions filed from outside the USA
$150K for US renewal
$200K if spouse is working on EAD
$300K for L1 if they file EB1-C
$350K for EB1-C filings (This 5 retrogressively)
Then this fraud will stop.
I used to work for one of the team tools teams, which was pathetic. Thank God I'm out of that mo--nic team. I've seen multiple vendors and multiple managers from these vendor companies committing EB1-C fraud.
What they do is take so-called managerial positions, then go to Canada, then go to India, or they come directly from Canada to file EB1-C. They're just average or below average people. They get sent to GCC from the vendor side. If Schwab finds out, they should send them to GCC and call out the vendor for their EB1-C fraud. If they've filed, they should not be allowed to port.
@16k Yogi Berra lives in his head!
"Hiring someone in India is about 50% of the cost of hiring someone in India."
Yeah, this guy is cooked.
@c2 why do you have to put up with that? Because the guys at the top want more money -now- and don’t care that it’s going to make the company worse. That’s all this has ever been. That’s all it ever will be. It’s a joke of a system perpetuated by nothing more than na--d greed, which is the only value American leaders hold anymore.
Chinese kids are cheaper so are old people in their 80s in the US. Use them to prompt and build your sh---y website, micro services, databases, runbooks, CRQs, mobile applications, and glint surveys and sh-t dashboards. Pay them with cheap american snacks.
@hx Schwab will find a way to fail.
@hx RUP?
The industry, Schwab included, has sought fewer US workers for my entire career. Past performance doesn't guarantee future results, but I feel good about mass offshoring and AI being the same epic failures experienced with Agile, Java, automation, RUP, fail fast, flat orgs, tree orgs, distributed teams and ephemeral servers.
@c5 if there was a screenshot example of an email to Chuck, they would probably email Chuck.
@c2 Yes, we have to deal with that all the time. No outside the box thinking. You post an example sql query in a doc where they need to update the id to the actual one they have but instead they just copy the example the way it is and run that then say it doesn't work.
@a3 Is that why no one can take accountability? They just do the needful in the runbook, so they can't be responsible for anything.
I'm not sure what is worse, ai that confidently provides incorrect information and glazes you and make giant leaps/assumptions.
or ai (actual Indians) who you have to explicitly have to walk every detail and has not one lick of sense. "but sar the screenshot looks different, the button says Y but the instructions read Yes"
I feel like i'm programming in english when giving them tasks, but the complier isn't even that great. If I have to do the whole process myself so I can get exact screenshots why wouldn't I just do it myself? What happened to reading a tech doc and learning, now its just make the the picture on the doc look like the picture you are doing.
@a2 They are also capable of learning from and admitting mistakes in some situations and aren't constantly trying to protect and gain izzat.
If you hire African engineers, they will be cheaper than Indian engineers.
I think it is safe to say that it will be very few!
If I was a SW developer, I would sharpen up my resume.
I do not think there will even be many SW Managers left. The interface with the business is the PO anyway.
POs and Architects will be left, a handful of Project Managers, Business Leaders, and customer facing people. That's it! Do your math! No wonder that there is an effort of off-loading real estate.
