Thread regarding Cengage layoffs

Concerning new job posted - AI Engineer for FP&A

A new job has been posted, they are looking to hire someone to develop AI to take processes, procedures, analysis, etc out of the hands of current workers and into the bowels of AI. The worst part is that the job description includes making the AI in compliance with audit standards and SOX public standards. All while following the rules of controls and separation of duties? How can this be taken seriously? Trusting that data is properly handled, accounting is done up to high standards, and that our financial statements are accurate in the hands of newly developed AI? More layoffs coming to FP&A if this job gets filled? Whoever takes this job will be a yes-man and completely wreck our financial accuracy.

Ai is here ... accept the fact it will take your JOB....

Sales reps, Consultants, AE , SS , LC,.... I could care less what you call the position Ai is going to take your JOB too. (99 CSC's positions or what ever they are calling them will build courses for the work Ai is generating , which is the work you once did!

The reassuring part is Cengage can never get these huge initiatives right. They end up making things far worse from what was there in beginning. Every time. It is because they got rid of too many competent people. I would not sweat layoffs due to this.

Thank you for this useless post. Cengage is barely paving the way unlike all the other companies doing the same thing:

Another brilliant comment by our good friend Anonymous. Don't lose your day job, too soon?
