CEOs say we are in a low fire, low hire economy. They view AI as important but not transformative.

I would agree with that. With so much economic uncertainty, it doesn’t make sense to hire people, and if someone is fired or quits, they aren’t replaced. The biggest change I have seen is lower raises and resets to base pay now that the pandemic is over. It’s not exactly great for most people out there.
