According to the Labor Department, job growth slowed across the U.S. in April but remained healthy. While the number of jobless claims remains historically low, a Business Insider report is warning of a possible white-collar recession. Aki Ito, chief correspondent at Business Insider, joins CBS News to explain.

So they are trying to make things harder on job seekers because they didn't like that employees were getting pay increases during the pandemic.

This is all going to blow up in company's faces - Ai doesn't buy products or services. Short-term, its been used as a cost-cutting tool by executives to trim their labor forces. But if you trim too much and leave too many people unemployed , which they've done, you're going to leave very few people in a position with disposable incomes to then use your services and products. Fast Food companies are seeing this now in their last quarterly report - a drop in revenue despite raising prices - they've found less people coming in. It's all going to blow up in their faces. Ai wasn't meant to be a replacement, it was meant to be a tool to enhance worker productivity. Executives are going to learn the hard way.

@MB-xv7er Месяц назад

That girl is uneducated. “Nobody knows for sure!” Girl… companies don’t hire these six figure earners because it is expensive to have their experience and dedication to make the business flourish. This is why companies want to hire someone with years of experience, but at a huge pay cut. Experienced people aren’t taking pay cuts, no matter how much the conservative capitalists beg. You have a lot of these high earners who were smart and invested their salary which has given them a decent nest egg for the time being, thus giving them the power to say no to a corporations cheap offer. My point in all this is companies aren’t going to find someone with years of knowledge and try to underpay their efforts.

@gordonallen9095 28 дней назад

Because there is a GLUT of college educated workers, and many companies are finding that it is more cost effective to cut executive and management spots than rank and file workers. UPS just did such a purge not long ago. There are simply more white collar workers than jobs available. As AI technology advances, more jobs will become obsolete. That includes white collar jobs as well as blue.

@jonbrown9490 Месяц назад

It's because companies are waiting to or are already leveraging AI to handle many of the "white collar" tasks within their individual organizations. For example, if you have an accounting department of 100 people and now 50 can do the same amount of work with the use of AI integration, then you can cut 1/2 the salaries in that department. Now apply that across multiple departments and companies, and you can start to see where some of the numbers are coming from. Companies are still doing well and posting solid profits while laying people off( not every company...obviously), so that would indicate, in my unprofessional opinion, that this is due to cost cutting. In business it's much easier to cut costs than make more revenue.

Because there was a hiring binge and companies are excellent T creating jobs that don’t need to exist. When revenues stop increasing then the bloat has to go to increase bottom line numbers.

It’s going to be like England where if you make $20 you’re lucky. Poor pay, poor healthcare is the new English model.

They say nobody knows? lol Majority shareholders want profit no matter the state of economy or inflation. Big tech hyping employees up over ai advances then slashing 1000’s of jobs because of it. And people are not just leaving jobs. They are being placed on performance improvement and leaving before their unemployment gets denied… severance is running out… and ACTUAL people going through this have been all over social media talking about this but “y’all” kept saying ‘but the stats”… everyone is right until the thing they are right about flips the script on them personally

It's amazing how all you hear is it's hard to find a job. It'd calld greed. Companies what free labor. Our government is playing into it too.

Our accounting firm is always hiring more people. They hire them by the truck load. If a person has a degree with a high GPA then they will hire a person regardless of degree.

@@alphaomega1351 we wait until after a recession starts to fire auditors and consultants. We never fire tax staff. Tax is the only department that grows year after year. Especially during downturns. But it’s the hardest work.

So the people who went to college for white collar jobs are the most at risk because companies don’t want to pay those bigger salaries anymore, but the workers need to earn more to get their student loans paid off.

@chrisbigs9772 Месяц назад

If high federal rates cause companies to pay interest instead of employees. Hiring slows down. Less money to people. Less buying stops inflation. More workers keeping wages low is also a benefit for large corporations. Capitalism is great however inflation and corporate profits both raised at the same time somehow????
