Why Tech Jobs Are Disappearing In The U.S

Why is the Tech Job Market on the Brink of Collapse?

The U.S. job market is undergoing a historic adjustment marked by rising unemployment, declining opportunities, and accelerating automation. Despite record corporate profits, companies have cut more than a million jobs, creating a “jobless boom.”

AI-driven automation has already eliminated tens of thousands of roles, while entry-level positions are disappearing as 61% now require prior experience. Workers face high education costs, stagnant wages, and soaring living expenses, forcing millions to take multiple jobs.

Hiring algorithms filter most applications before human review, worsening access to stable work. As a result, both new graduates and mid-career professionals confront a highly competitive, shrinking labor market.
