My company hired a bunch of lower cost engineers in Chile without considering local labor laws, and were upset to discover that the Chileans refused to respond to being paged out of hours when systems were failing…and there was nothing they could do about it

Literally the richest company in the world, outsourcing to Mexico. What the actual fuck?
I think they’re trying to get out ahead of the Alphabet union.
New waves of workers will either fall back to the groomed bigotry of “they took our jobs” as we have seen time and time again from other job sectors (like industrial/manufacturing/support/etc). Or maybe wake up to the corps/bosses/board members/capitalists being the real cause of their loss of jobs. Given that so many tech-bros tend to jump into libertarian stuff (regulations/taxes being evil by default which they also learned from the bosses that just fired them). I am guessing that sadly the former will be what they do, even if they go on to curse the mega-corps that purged them to inflate numbers. Though I hold hope that some will have a radicalizing moment and join the left.
They took our jobs!
Don’t worry, the new AI search has made their positions unnecessary.

Google self-destruction speedrun, let’s go
“Don’t be evil” my ass. Lying motherfucks.
That hasn’t been their motto for many years.
Literally the only Google thing in my life is my Android phone, and that’s only because of F-Droid and all the apps available there.
I detangled myself from google when they took away free “apps for your domain” accounts. The only google crap I haven’t been able to quit are android and maps
Probably higher them back later as consultants. Seen that happen twice.
