Why has the market been so bad for so long? Anybody feeling a change coming soon? LinkedIn is useless.

Globalised economy + evidence that remote working can work = offshored jobs to be done remotely much cheaper.

Sure, people can blame it on tariff inertia or AI, but if jobs still need to be done, what do you think’s happening to them.

I’ve seen it many times - offshoring roles and tasks because of cost is absolutely everywhere. AI is just a nice smokescreen right now.

Offshoring suppresses local wages to the point locals find them insulting, giving employers a perfect reason to offshore even further because nobody local wants the jobs.

Locals race to the bottom trying to find the fewer and fewer jobs that have to be done in-person, driving those wages down too.

Sure, some jobs require local knowledge nuances, but there’s ways around that.

In short - not going to get any better anytime soon. Essentially everyone is competing with the entire world’s workers - whether they’re heading to your local country or staying in theirs. It’s a global talent pool now.

I have an associate's degree in graphic design and work designing wedding stationery. I've been at my company since 2016, and am now a design consultant - speaking to customers directly and creating custom artwork and designs for them. I know I'm underpaid (50k/year in the SF Bay Area) but I thought the benefits and stability were worth it. I'm now severely burnt out (most of my team is) and not sure which way to go, or how to grow. Any tips/advice?

Thanks!

I’m an in-house designer. My company decided to offer social media marketing packages to our clients. Today they asked me to take full ownership of that outside social media marketing on top of my current job duties.

I expressed a need for a promotion or raise to compensate for the major increase in responsibility, a responsibility that is not currently in my description.

They pushed back.
