It looks like credentialing is also getting outsourced to India, can't wait to see how many regulatory and compliance issues this could create.

217 people were let go from india(gdi) yesterday. This involved managers, directors, testers and developers.
We’re a bunch of developers working hard here, and today I found out that the upcoming related project was handed entirely over to the India team for development. Mind you, they already know that the India team uses a lot of AI, and we’ve had a bunch of bugs because of it. So now we’re basically left with nothing. Maybe we’re just waiting to get laid off?
Why most hires in india wont code and just do confluence updates . Are they hired as per ppl manager friendships
More layoffs last week. More coming. Those in tech need to be aware the new tech center is absorbing their role!
Just saying!
All major contracts have been renewed!
Bank of America is going to become Bank of India 🤡
Basically confirming a lot of us will lose our jobs to India and GCC.
Her email said we need to manage our expenses as year end goals.
Expenses = layoffs of employees
Mutual of America’s move to Outsourced Indian Labor will backfire & here is why.
Sen. Bernie Moreno’s Halting International Relocation of Employment (HIRE) Act is drawing international backlash, particularly from India, where major political and economic figures warn the legislation could severely disrupt the country’s booming tech-services economy. The bill proposes a 25% excise tax on U.S. companies making outsourcing payments to foreign workers, aiming to protect American jobs from being shipped overseas.
Jairam Ramesh, General Secretary of the Indian National Congress, raised alarm over the bill, calling it a direct threat to India’s IT services, business process see outsourcing (BPO), consulting firms, and global capability centers (GCCs). Ramesh said the bill “reflects a growing mindset in the U.S.” that white-collar jobs should not be lost to India, much like blue-collar manufacturing jobs were lost to China.
India’s tech sector, heavily reliant on U.S. contracts, is bracing for economic fallout. Ramesh warned the legislation, if enacted, could light a fire under the Indian economy and force a major reassessment of U.S.-India economic relations.
The bill, introduced in early October and referred to the Senate Committee on Finance, establishes a “Domestic Workforce Fund” that would receive the tax revenue and use it for American workforce development. It also removes the ability for companies to deduct outsourcing payments from their tax filings.
Moreno said the HIRE Act is about ending the decades-long practice of “globalist politicians and C-Suite executives” outsourcing American jobs to chase lower labor costs. His bill, he argues, will “hit them where it hurts: their pocketbooks.”
Indian officials and economists see the HIRE Act as an expansion of economic protectionism. Former Reserve Bank of India Governor Raghuram Rajan warned that the bill represents a “creeping extension of tariffs from goods to services.”
The proposal follows Moreno’s earlier SAFE HIRE Act, which received backing from labor unions for imposing strict penalties, including prison time, on company executives who knowingly hire illegal aliens. Together, the two bills form a coordinated effort to reshape U.S. labor and immigration policy by punishing companies that prioritize foreign workers over Americans.
India’s tech sector is already under strain from a recently imposed $100,000 H-1B visa fee. The HIRE Act, if passed, would further restrict access to U.S. job markets, cut off billions in service export revenue, and put thousands of Indian tech workers at risk.
When will the Americas and EMEA support engineers be told that everything is moving to India and get their tiny severance as India and AI will make all of the enterprise customers so happy. rolf lmao.
I heard new cpo is planning a sizable layoff soon and his goal is to move engineering to India completely - - except hw. He was known to hire only h1bs at Cisco according to Reddit back in the day..

Connections matter ?
T-Mobile has established its GCC in India, and AT&T has also expanded its offices across multiple locations. Meanwhile, Dan (the customers man )appears to have taken a very different approach, with several leadership positions being eliminated and ongoing workforce reductions across various organizations in India. It increasingly feels like Dan may be considering a significant reduction of employees and its office presence in India. Hope the hiring in US will be in peaks 🤞
Cheap labor, offshore jobs, no bonuses — the whole corporate starter pack. The logic seems to be: ‘Hey, a dollar feeds someone for a day over there, so why pay more?’ Absolutely genius… if the goal is a race to the bottom. Don't forget security breaches in motherland.
I think it’s 5500 people so far
Assuming India tomorrow will take the count to at least 8000
Backend mainframe area. the area that ED was holding off for years. Few H1Bs under him. Says yes to all and work like they are still in British india. Hides all the truth and makes him happy. Comes out of the call the dash out to offshore and their directs. All this because they are visa slaves.
Now the new guy came in and its shaking the whole caucus. ED is loosing the grip . JO and his nepotism hires are not safe. PMO group stacked with all high grades and does barely minimum. Oh the guy became VP in no time just because of nepotism and can barely understand what he speaks out.
What, precisely, is their function? They seems to have ample time to dissect the most trivial of PowerPoints and visitor agendas. Beyond convening superfluous meetings and squandering the time of others, do they contribute anything of genuine value? Do they even know what real work means.
According to some inside guess, the scale of this round of layoffs may be much smaller than originally expected. It appears that only certain departments are accelerating outsourcing to India, with just a single-digit number of U.S.-based employees being laid off, rather than the large-scale workforce reductions that had initially been anticipated.
Someone previously posted an email from our beloved CEO about impending layoffs and most requisitions going to India. I was laid off a couple weeks ago. Was that email or any other corporate comms ever sent?
I think it’s time we tell the truth.
When I joined the workforce in 2002, many of my engineering leads and managers were working from the US, while I was working from Bangalore.
One thing I noticed very early was the difference in work culture.
Indians are, by nature, extremely work-oriented. We don’t like leaving things unfinished. I remember hearing complaints from Indian colleagues about our US counterparts: “These people are privileged. They shut their computers at exactly 4:30 PM.”
Even during a major P1 production issue, you could sometimes see the US team log off when their working hours were over. Meanwhile, the people still in the office were predominantly Indians—working until 10 or 11 PM, handing things over to the offshore team, and then finally going home to their families.
It was a complaint. But, in a strange way, it was also an appreciation of our own work ethic.
Yes, many people in the US have historically enjoyed a level of work-life balance that many Indians did not. They could shut their laptops at 4:30 PM and walk away. We often felt that we couldn't.
But our mentality was different:
“We are getting paid. We have a responsibility. We need to solve the problem. We don't want the company to get a bad name.”
And then we went home.
Our families mattered enormously to us. But we also believed that our ability to provide for our families came from having a job in the first place. We were grateful for that opportunity, and we took that responsibility seriously.
That mentality helped many of us build careers across companies and industries.
We weren't slaves to anyone. We were people who understood the value of an opportunity—and were willing to work extraordinarily hard to make the most of it.
And here is where I think the H-1B debate gets uncomfortable.
For years, everyone benefited from this system.
You valued your freedom.
You valued your work-life balance.
You valued your paycheck.
And we valued our families too.
But for many of us, loving our families meant something different.
We were willing to live thousands of miles away from them, work long hours, sacrifice weekends, and endure years of uncertainty because the ultimate goal was simple:
Make sure our families are taken care of.
That's the difference.
So before blaming Indians or H-1B workers for being willing to work hard, perhaps we should acknowledge the other side of the story.
People didn't come here because they wanted to take something away from someone else.
Many came because they were willing to make sacrifices that others simply weren't willing to make.
And that work ethic didn't suddenly become a problem when the people doing it happened to be Indian.
This is not the Bank of America. This should be renamed as the Bank of India. Oops, the name is already taken.
H1B fraud, H4 EAD hiring, OPT, EAD, Greencard friends and family, BUT NO Americans.
Every manager and HR should be investigated. They take kickbacks in different forms.
The offices in Texas, New York are filled with a bunch of fraudsters, TCS and Wipro employees.
This is not acceptable.
Report to the government. Stop the fraudsters.
Let’s start the conversation!
Upcoming topics??
India memebers have literally spoiled the work culture. Some managers are so rude.
why are all of the jobs being moved to India and Costa Rica? Is the plan to have most of Cencora out of the US?
For the amount of roles moved to Mexico and India why do they not have the same RTO policy? Or do they? Can someone share please….

Apparently India and the states will be hit most. CloudIQ is meant to be getting another round to as they have underperformed.
Folks this one took me by surprise so please make it a priority to hold your loved ones extra close, I know I will be holding
What is the timeline for moving all GP execution roles to India? I heard there was a report recently to move in this direction.

New company purchased as I see more layoff posts on LinkedIn and numerous posts from India about just getting hired (as well as interns accepting roles).
New company is Ai related so at least they know stuff.
As Optum continues to shift US positions to other countries, at what point is India considered the new onshore and the US considered offshore?

IBM CEO Arvind Krishna hauled in the largest compensation package in the Low-Wage 100, with $38.0 million – 765 times as much as the company’s $49,630 median pay. Forty years ago, few would have imagined that this technology pioneer, renowned for providing well-paying, secure U.S. jobs, would one day rank among the Low-Wage 100. Today, IBM employs more people in India than in the United States.
Great read. Absolutely disgusting what IBM has done since King Gerstner came in 4-1-93.
