Bengaluru techies are not even earning one-tenth of Silicon Valley salaries, AI may worsen the gap further
Based on the deer report published by UNBOXINGBLR, the report emphasizes a sharp wage gap: engineers in cities such as Sydney ($ 78,000), Tel Aviv ($ 77,000), Toronto ($ 75,000) and London ($ 65,000) earn five to six times more. Even in Asian centers such as Tokyo ($ 62,000), Seoul ($ 51,000), Singapore ($ 47,000) and Beijing ($ 46,000), the salary is significantly higher than the Bengaluru.
Despite inequality, Bengaluru continues to be a magnet for global technology companies thanks to its talented, English -speaking labor and deep -rooted software ecosystem. The city’s competitive costs continue to make a preferred place for outsourcing and technology innovation.
However, global technology is in the stream of labor market. Pandemic cost prints and artificial intelligence -oriented automation triggered widespread dismissal, especially in high -cost economies such as the United States, but India begins to feel the effects of fluctuation.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy recently implied that AI’s increasing impact on business structures implied to reduce future labor. Jassy said Amazon has more than 1,000 productive AI projects already built or developed. These include Alexa+ assistant, AI -guided shopping vehicles and a renewed customer service chat boat. The company also uses AI in the fulfillment network to improve inventory settlement and demand forecast.
“Today, in almost every corner of the company, we use productive AI in almost every corner of the company to make customers’ lives better and easier,” Jassy said. He described AI as a generation of technology that quickly transforms how Amazon serves its customers. Microsoft presented voluntary exit in various departments, including Google communication, marketing and research, while preparing layoffs in the sales department. In this developing landscape, the low -cost advantage of Bengaluru can be both a strategic being and an approaching difficulty.
