Are Software Engineers Going to Get Paid Less?
Show notes
Is software development becoming a code factory - and what could that mean for developer salaries? Two Toronto job postings spark a conversation about pay, AI, outsourcing, and the future of tech careers. In this edition of the Web News, Matt and Mike discuss the salary figures shared for AI roles at Canadian Tire and OpenTable, then explore whether cheaper code production could mean smaller teams and less bargaining power for developers. They debate whether AI could make offshoring easier, how competition for jobs affects pay, and why trust, communication, and tailored solutions still matter when hiring developers. Plus, they discuss how Toronto’s cost of living and commuting demands complicate the salary conversation.
