Layoffs in IT. Is it Network Positions?
Seeing a lot of IT positions getting layoffs in the news and on r/Layoffs to make way for funding for AI. They don't seem to list what positions are being cut. My suspicion is that Developers seem to be taking the brunt of the cuts, but I don't really have perspective outside my local area and field.
If anyone is in an Network Engineer position for any companies doing IT layoffs could you let us know where they are making the cuts. Id imagine some are more surgical cuts and others more like a meat cleaver just making chops until upper management is happy, but id like to have perspective from the people actually experiencing the cuts.
