IBM Just Replaced HR with AI!! Who's Next?
So IBM just axed 8,000 people, and most of them are from the HR department. Why? Because AI can now read resumes, schedule interviews, give you automated rejection emails, and probably tell you “we’ll get back to you” with more emotion than some recruiters ever did. Don’t get me wrong automation has its place. But when a company replaces humans who built its culture with lines of code, you’ve got to wonder… Is anyone safe? First HR, then maybe finance, operations, even tech support? What’s left AI managing AI? To IBM: maybe try evolving with your people, not without them. Thoughts? Is this the future we signed up for?🙄

Job security - there are so many projects. If you are on bench then don't worry if you have skills.

  • Job security - Good

Dislikes

There is nothing like annual/yearly appraisal. You can be on same package for 4 years no matter how hard you work. They will only point out for "out of the box like independently developed some AI toll or equivalent to it" thing and at this point you will loose the battle. If you are okay to get yearly 1-2% hike on overall package then only you should join
