The writing is on the wall everyone. This is part of the GDE initiative. They hired H1B workers to ensure their friends and family in India can get a job.
This is all part of that broader offshoring effort 70/30 (target 70% offshored to India & Philipeans, 30% will remain in USA)
They are hiring(embedding an I&P employee on your team to observe, and look to automate your process, and take your job. This has already been happening and is ramping up right now and will continue through 2022, 2023.
They are doing this in all LOB’s as we speak(except where regulatory work is happening). 70/30 is the target operating model.
I don’t agree with this operating model, but these are the facts. This is the cost cutting solution put in place by your Leader but was delayed due to the pandemic. The GDET(global delivery engagement team) is leading the mass layoffs no matter what the stock market is doing. This is happening, whether you believe it or not. Highly unethical, and not sustainable long term either.
Exactly what @1naa+1hKbO435 said.
