I was told the next round will impact pricing as well. I don't believe they have been impacted thus far.

I overheard 2 managers talking about this post when I was in the office. They are def aware we are talking about it.
This makes me feel so sick to my stomach. I wonder if it's based off tenure date or just the entire specialist role as a whole
@3bh They have automated our roles to a point where this is a highly likely scenario. While I understand pricing is country-specific. Pricing teams as they are today are no longer needed with the amount of automation now built into the process. They have failed to give specialists other tasks to supplement the work automation has taken away. I feel they have done this to simplify the role as much as possible to move it over, leaving whatever work remains for the analysts. This mirrors what they did in finance a couple of years ago. Automate as much as possible, move over repetitive tasks, keep a very small team of analysts in the US.
No chance that is happening. Pricing is an in country specific function. Too strategic and the cost of one mistake will cost the full outsource saving in one hit!
Does anyone know when this is supposedly supposed to happen?
@2em this referring to pricing team, right?
I heard specialist level and below will be gone, keeping few analysts for urgent matters and moving the rest of the work to Genpact.
Any more info on this?
