[Monica]

AI takeover is already hitting folks.

12,000, bro... these are talented folks; 200 big companies could each hire 50 of them.

[Vinay]

It's only going to get worse.

And, go on and have kids.

Really sorry to hear about the Oracle news today. If you've been impacted, ping me if I can help with introductions or resume reviews. Also, if you want a quick way to signal you're open to new roles without the usual application hassle, check out this portal: http://wing-career.com – it's a streamlined alternative to Naukri and other dead portals. Hang in there, everyone.

12,000 employees in India hardly dent Larry Ellison's wealth, but here we are.

When it's finally our turn to get a job, the company starts laying off people, stops hiring freshers, mass hiring drops, AI like Claude is demanding extra skills.

[Kalpana]

This feels like the end.

The pattern's always the same – hire aggressively in a boom, overpromise investors, miss targets, lay off thousands, then re‑hire after 18 months at lower pay, and repeat.

I doubt AI made those roles redundant. It's disheartening to see social media pages still pushing that narrative when the real cause is probably poor management and shaky financial decisions.
