U want the hard truth? Every era got game changers, so it is not a new thing.

It is also not a skills issue btw, being skilful just makes u exploitable one season and disposable the next. Nobody gets to the top being the most technically skilled person in the room.

End of the day it is not the industry but connections, who u know that will guide u to the right places.

Structural unemployment, yes

Moi in cybersecurity also same. So far only received call from recruiters for only those entry level security analyst jobs, even though I more than 10 years exp.
Current job workload keep increasing but no additional headcount. Keep squeezing us.
Burnout but cannot find any other jobs.

Is the same every industry.dont squeeze u ish not normal.

 

[ramlee]

i can share in my personal experience

my company is start to reduce headcount for some govt project

1. optimization of resources
2. Make use of AI

this 2 is becos of one thing: Save cost

A lot of projects they plan to offshore to Philippines team or even India team

it is no longer FT they need, with AI, they dun even need FT, they dun even need foreigner, they can just use AI to do most of the work, and make use of offshore resource, pay them in peso

Singapore team only need to manage them

a lot of my friends are on bench becos of that

on the bench means collect pay but nothing to do?

Zuckerberg said he's cutting jobs due to AI

Last time people say RPA and AI will let humans do higher value tasks and let computer do routine work. Really is self pwn. We embrace tech and now tech bites us back.
