Over 149,000 American specialist employees [ US Citizens ] across more than 500 companies Laid-off [ job kaput ], Is Elton or is it Elon Musk unaware , is Vivek ignorant of this public non CIA data? Why, is the U.S. laying off so many American skilled workers, particularly engineers? More burden on food stamps/ welfare?




In 2024, the U.S. tech industry faced an unprecedented wave of workforce reductions, marking one of the most challenging periods for the sector in recent memory. Over 149,000 specialist employees were laid off across more than 500 companies. (Source: NerdWallet) While detailed data on specific job roles remains sparse, engineering positions were among those hit hardest, suggesting a significant shift in the tech employment landscape.

To illustrate:

  • Intel announced plans in August 2024 to cut 15,000 jobs, targeting $10 billion in savings by 2025. (Source: Wikipedia)

  • Ingram Micro revealed its intention to eliminate 850 positions by early 2025 as part of a major restructuring effort. (Source: CRN)

These examples point to the reality within the industry, with layoffs reflecting broader trends of cost-cutting and restructuring.

Why, in an era of supposed innovation and growth, is the U.S. tech sector shedding so many American skilled workers, particularly engineers? 

Companies are increasingly turning to automation, outsourcing, and this strategy has come at the expense of experienced domestic talent.

Against this backdrop, figures like Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy are advocating for increased immigration to bolster the U.S. workforce. 

The push to "replace" laid-off workers with cheaper, foreign labor is not rooted in xenophobia but an ongoing blatant fact.

While this may sound like the recycled rhetoric of far-right populists, the evidence paints a different picture. 

With thousands of high-paying jobs already lost, U.S. tech companies are looking for ways to rebuild their workforce at a lower cost, often favoring H-1B visa holders and international hires over domestic employees.

Evidence-Based Insights

  1. Economic Pressures: Companies like Intel and Ingram Micro are cutting jobs to save billions in operational costs, signaling a shift towards leaner operations.

  2. Wage Disparities: Hiring foreign talent often allows firms to pay lower slaver wages compared to domestic hires while meeting the same technical requirements.

The substantial layoffs in the U.S. tech sector during 2024 highlight a critical turning point As much as it might echo far-right fears, the reality is rooted in a calculated replacement strategy designed to address what CEO's perceive as business systemic inefficiencies.
