Hopefully Cisco will fire all of their incompetent Indian engineers and tech support staff but it is doubtful that they will do that. Most likely they will fire the competent people because of “diversity” reasons and keep the incompetent people because they have the right skin color and/or gender. Their products and services will undoubtedly get worse because of these layoffs.
We see news about corporate layoffs happening everywhere yet the United States government is saying that we have almost full employment. It is a totally ridiculous assertion.
The number of layoffs increased 98% compared with the previous year, per NYP.
