@536 yeah there looks to be little functional AI

So actually all the support jobs just send to Cognizant

Only until AI is up and running.
Then those roles will be obsolete.
Tech doesn't need entire AI teams.
CEOs know this. The recently laid off within AI know this.
Learning AI won't help you. Nothing will.
And now Agentorce can now replace every single tech job as of yesterday.

Ohana (originally an Hawaiian term) is used as a Salesforce propaganda marketing scam to promote internal culture: it works great during booming times to motivate workforce. Not so much during AI era when employees get replaced by machines

Partner ecosystem? BTW, seeing tons more "partner roles" being hired in India - guess they think we're "baristas" here in the US!
