There was layoffs for salesforce consultants recently. Digital marketing was very in demand during the pandemic, so salesforce consultants were overhired a bit, there was an overcorrection with the layoffs, and probably a correction to that.
VERY RATIONAL SYSTEM.
Also, why I do not trust management's estimates on how much jobs AI is displacing. You motherfuckers could not accurately account for how large of a workforce you needed before, during, or after covid, no way you can account for other external factors fuck off.
