Hello Everyone, Welcome back to another episode of The Geeky Pod.

If you haven't listened to the first episode, I recommend you to go and listen to that first.
A software developer is someone who knows about softwares and their end to end life cycle. In order to achieve that a person has to go through various phases in one's life starting from degree and then finally placement of job.
In this episode I am joined by two of my friends and fellow software Engineers ; Mr Sumit Kumar and Mr Monu Mishra. We discussed about various burning topics in the Industry at this moment viz. job cuts, automation, Work from home, Job bubble, job market currently and many more.
Topics Discussed:
- In the IT industry, there is a looming Recession and Job cuts. What do you think about those job cuts? Is it just a cost cutting activity or recession is on the way.
- Covid 19 pandemic has impacted most of the Industries in India and around the world. But IT industry was not at all disturbed by that.
Rather the production rate and delivery margin increased. Why do you think that happened? - So pandemic has taught us about Remote Working. We have done Work from Home for more that 2 years. What do you think the long term sustainability for this Remote working mode?
