So companies have spent the past year firing developers citing AI driven productivity. Bills for the token usage started coming due the past few weeks. Now they are throttling token usage among employees. The amount of work and speed required from employees remain the same. But companies now lack the manpower and skill to do these work manually at the same speed. They can’t rehire because funds for headcount is spent.

These tech executives have painted themselves into quite the corner.

AI is the easy blame, lot's of companies are just downsizing to juice the bottom line. With the last decade of consolidation and rise of competition overseas, they got lazy and now don't know how to grow anymore.

I almost got out of Pharma... A CD from a Consumer agency doing solid work reached out, and I was so excited thinking I could finally do the kind of work I love. Then they told me they will fill the position with a current employee. I played it cool, but I can’t deny I felt frustrated. I don’t wanna do healthcare, but it seems like it’s the only thing available in NYC nowadays. I also don’t have many connections in this city. So, IF you need an ACD/Art (full-time or FL-to-perm), let’s chat! 🙌🏻

Hi Guys,

I am a ReactJS developer (frontend) with 3.8 years of experience. I currently switched my company but they don't have an opening for ReactJS and kept me on a bench for 3 months and they are telling me now to learn AEM technology and work on the AEM project for now.
They hired me for a package of 16 LPA.
So my questions are is it a good technology to learn? Should I say yes and have a career in it?
Will I get the same package like ReactJS or less? What is future if compared with React?
