This has been occurring for a while, no? Half of my team at an old job was in Romania.


After the pandemic, P&L leadership functions moved abroad as well.

A lot of mid-level management on visas were laid off during 2020-21 during the depth of COVID, and this had to return.

Now, the SVP for a core Engineering Org or your PM Director owning an entire BU might be in Bangalore, Tel Aviv, or Cluj.

If ICs to mid/upper level leadership are in the foreign office, it doesn't make as much sense to keep hiring domestically for Product or Engineering roles.


Yeah. This makes sense, particularly vis-a-vis leadership.


used to do early calls with my QA team in Croatia. Nice folks.
