good luck with that. America is so hyped up on racism, immigration reform is a non-starter.
like could you imagine the mish mash of shitty conservative racist rage... and stupidity surrounding technology.

They definitely don't want to drag contracts out! They would lose money doing so. Follow-on work is usually due to the customers wanting to change or add to the objectives.

Meh. Sorry for the individuals that are losing their jobs, but this has happened again and again throughout history as new technologies become mainstream. Today's roles aren't special or uniquely safe compared to roles in the past that disappeared due to the invention of new technologies.
I feel for the individuals involved, but this has always been what technological progress looks like.

Accenture are already a consultancy and management company. Most fucked up projects are that the customer doesn't have a clear idea on what they want, and that when the initial releases are avaliable (90% point), they change their minds or want to add on more functionality.
FYI - my partner is director level in a closely related company. She often fire-fights a lot of truely messed up projects.

Accenture and other companies already out-source a lot. A lot of dev work is done in India or Eastern Europe.
This is more losing BAs and managers. A lot of companies assumed that Covid growth rates would continue, they haven't.

I wonder if Accenture will hire consultants to spend 4 years and $27.7 million to discover why this happened

So when will share holders realize that AI is really good at replacing CEO and other executive decision makers. It's time we got rid of these overpaid random function generators. Teach AI economics, engineering AND a basic MBA and you have CEO in a box.
