Thread regarding Comcast layoffs

Most of these jobs are being moved offshore

Not being cut, just moved. That's the sad truth.

None of the jobs in my business unit are being outsourced. They’re just going away.

It is India’s time. Capital is always looking for lowest labor cost, as living standards go up, labor cost increases and then it is on to next cheaper market, Indian’s can enjoy for now but sooner or later they will get to see. While the cycle plays out, it destroys lives in places where jobs are moving out from, unfortunately for us (US) we have seen this with our factories first and now the knowledge workers. Simple solution is labor power!

Can confirm from upper level at CTC. The India offices are taking the bulk of the work. Unless legislation is introduced to safeguard American telecommunications data, nothing will stop this.

For hypocrisy, India, it’s ILLEGAL to export the telecommunications data due to national security. America allows it.

@ay What jokes are you even talking about because there are none here.

The process overall is overlooked by US law, and companies take adv of it, and everyone, in more ways than people know.

Every big US company is putting stake in GCC’s. “Over 290 US Fortune 500 companies; Walmart, Target, Comcast, Wells Fargo, JP Morgan, CVS, Google, Microsoft, Amazon -and so on. US companies drive 60%-65% of the total Indian GCC market (420,000 - 520,000 of these are specific corporate tech jobs)” AI.

Follow the money trail and who is in charge at the tech level more than anything not just the top. It’s much bigger of a problem than anyone realizes, and it’s noticeable here because it’s replacing a lot of tech jobs.

Our country is not failing. The stock market is higher than its ever been. The system is working as designed. You, me, and every other worker were ALWAYS designed to be the bag holders.

Nationalism is a distraction from the hand in your, and other workers in the world's, pocket.

@b1 Stand up against who? The other indian workers who will also be tossed to the curb as soon as a cheaper option than them shows up?

Get your petty nationalism out of here. We're all cr--s in the same bucket, don't ever forget that and stop letting these fat cats on top divert your attention.

@ay

I think we’re about done being called racists. Our country is failing and the globe is taking full advantage of us.

You’ll be labeled a racist no matter what you do. Might as well stand up for yourself and your livelihood.

Honestly, if you guys can’t comprehend how making jokes about Indians and Filipinos is not racist, idk what to do. Everyone has the right to be upset about offshoring, but you guys are not getting the point. Over your heads, but whatever. That CEIC post from a few days ago could be from an American for all you know. I never said pointing out the fact jobs are going offshore is racist. That is fact. Also, who employed McKinsey? Oh yeah, the SLT. And who is the make up for that?

Guys. White, brown, or purple, you are numbers on spreadsheets, not human beings, according to the people these decisions.

Don't ever forget that and don't get distracted. Remember who the real enemy is up top.

@ap imagine talking a certain way about any race including whites on here and thinking you are not racist _ apparently you have not seen the posts on here of ciec members throwing it in the faces of those who were cut? Regardless very sorry you were cut.

Whose fault is it? How many of the folks making decisions at the top are not true americans? I mean its old white men and women who’re agreeing and making these decisions - aren’t they true patriotic capitalists?

When you find out McKinsey is behind the layoffs… then take a look at half their team. Are you really surprised their modus operandi is offshoring?

@ak How is it racist to say that a position was eliminated that was held by a US citizen, and then the same position was reposted for hiring in CIEC?

Those are two facts, race doesn't come into the discussion until someone tries to defend these horrible executive decisions to outsource a US held job overseas to capitalize on cheaper wages.

@an the way people are making jokes about them though IS racist. Yes, it su-ks it is happening, but that doesn’t justify racism. Literally privileged old white men and women made this decision. That says more about them than it does the people who are being given our jobs.

Before this turns extremely racist, just remember it is the Americans at the top of the org who made these decisions. I also have been let go and am pi---d. It isn’t the Indians’ or Filipinos’ fault that executives made such a terrible decision.

Call it what it is, un-American.

It would be one thing if they hire people for jobs Americans won't do but they are actively taking jobs from Americans and hiring 2-3 people in India.

It's why I am ashamed of this company. It used to be a great place to work for over the last 5 years continually made terrible decisions.
