Tech Giants Shift Hiring Overseas Amid AI Investment Pressure

Faced with the need to invest in AI while maintaining profitability, tech giants like Salesforce and Workday are cutting US-based jobs and expanding hiring internationally, particularly in countries like India and Mexico. This reflects a broader shift in the tech industry towards prioritizing margins and underscores the increasing globalization of skilled talent. While the percentage of US employees is decreasing, these companies still rely heavily on the US market, with international expansion driven primarily by cost-cutting and access to a global talent pool.
