      Most tech workers in India are in Bangalore. Most tech workers in Bangalore are originally from Karela. Most people from Karela are communists.

      So, yeah, they probably will.

    Nice to see they’re still chugging the AI Koolaid after completely blundering their test rollout of AI search results.

      The article is from a month ago, about a layoff that happened half a month before that, so this all happened before the ai rollout when they were probably still optimistic it was a good idea

      We can type all the shit we want here on Lemmy but there’s a reason they hired an Indian guy as CEO of Google and pay him millions while we slave at our 9-5 for peanuts.

    India has the worlds best software engineers. It makes no sense to hire software engineers in the US.

      I work for an Australian firm and we have a team in India. Indian software devs are the only one who delivers their projects on time.
