General Motors is gearing up for several hundred layoffs, with the brunt of the culled positions pertaining to information technology (IT). This is interesting because the cuts come shortly after CEO Mary Barra touted the company’s pivot to allowing artificial intelligence to handle software development. However, we also know that the automaker is still hiring in the same fields that are seeing layoffs, often bringing in foreign workers from outside the country.

News of the layoffs circulated on forums before being covered by Bloomberg, which estimated that the automaker planned on eliminating 500-600 jobs starting this week. Most of these positions were located in Warren, Michigan, or Austin, Texas. Many pertain to vehicle software development, coding, telematics, cybersecurity, and other careers related to information technology.

“GM is transforming its Information Technology organization to better position the company for the future. As part of that work, we have made the difficult decision to eliminate certain roles globally. We are grateful for the contributions of the employees affected and are committed to supporting them through this transition,” the automaker stated.

However, we know that the company still has nearly 100 open positions related to software development and artificial intelligence. Perhaps more concerning is the prospect that some of these layoffs may have been done to help make way for cheap imported labor.

GM has numerous H1B applications still on the books for 2026, most of which look to be seeing software and engineering specialists to come to the exact same parts of the country that are seeing layoffs. In fact, GM is often considered one of the largest importers of visaed workers.

If we examine the company’s Labor Condition Applications (LCAs), we can clearly see that GM recently brought on countless employees to fill the very same positions that are now seeing hundreds of layoffs. It also looks keen to continue this trend through 2026.

We can clearly see that GM has at least 44 applications for Warren, Michigan, alone for this year. The listed jobs frequently pertain to software development, software testing, programming, engineering, and vehicle design. Another five H1Bs were slated for Austin, Texas.

All told, we know of the company having made at least 132 separate H1B Labor Condition Applications between January and June of 2026. Most of these are mostly six-figure positions located in Michigan and would assuredly have contributed to the current layoffs to some degree.

A spokesperson from the automaker indicated that they were not authorized to speak publicly about the layoffs. But why would they even want to when the most truthful answer would presumably require them to discuss laying off the native workforce to bring in cheaper foreign labor?

We expect companies to reevaluate their existing workforce. It’s something GM seems to do on an almost annual basis, typically focusing on individual departments. However, without some much-needed transparency and some rational explanations, this is still likely to end up being an incredibly bad look for General Motors.

Automakers have just spent the last several years raking in record-breaking profits while their customers have been stressing about the cost of living and swelling vehicle pricing. It’d be surprising to learn that customers would be hunky dory with the premise that one of America’s largest employers is using artificial intelligence and imported foreign labor to eliminate domestic jobs. These are already contentious issues and have only become more so over time.
 
This is one of many reasons I do not buy that we are at net emigration from the U.S. Not only are the "self deportations" numbers fabricated, but the Trump administration has signed off on mass invasions through any and every kind of visa imaginable. A lot of people like to obsess over some changes to the H1B program, but there are a shit ton of other ways besides that foreigners are imported. Tourist visas, student visas, dozens of work visas, marriage visas, all of these are being handed out like candy.

Oh, and the government is still hiding how many foreigners it naturalized into citizens in 2025. The numbers for 2024 were released January 2025, yet the numbers for 2025 still "somehow" haven't been released. I am increasingly concluding that the entire mass deportations concept was just a coverup for mass immigration but legal, while trying to befuddle the right into accepting it with open arms.
 
>Fire native workers because they are "too expensive"
>Replace them with your cousins and pay them the same

The best part here is that the CEO of GM is a finn. The jeets haven't even taken over the company yet but some retarded white women is doing the exact same thing they would do for the love of the game.

This is the jeet way, they come in and fire everyone who isnt a jeet and hire there fucking cousins or some shit. Been seeing this for years. And then you get retarded jeets who literally cant do the job getting paid for nothing and not showing up to work.

You fucking doomers are something else. All you do is complain about things possibly being true, only for the information to be right in front of you. The foreign population declined not even one year during his first year in office. During his first year, he cut visas down and cut them down even more, and all the refugees being brought in (besides three Afghans) are White South Africans.

Bitching about it not going down immediately and instantaneously does nothing. You guys did the exact same thing during the first administration—threw your hands up and gave up—and then once Biden won, you guys endlessly doomed about Biden letting in all these browns with little regard. I bet you're going to do the same thing in the midterms and 2028, because owning Trump by not showing up to vote is definitely going to solve the problem.
 
All the more reason to just stay home in November. If no side will save you or even help you, it's best to just let nature take its course and let one of the sides be permanently destroyed so that something new might rise from its ashes.

There are plenty of defunct US political parties. It's time for Republicans to become one of them. And Trumps jew jew cum loving face can be engraved on the tombstone.

Yeah yeah yeah, ignore my lying eyes and all of the numbers and evidence that proves nothing is happening because you are mad I won't suck off Trump for you. I will tell you what: once Zion Don builds the border wall he promised and deports the one million a year he promised, then I will admit that he is actually accomplishing something. As is usual, I will buy results, not rhetoric. If you're this mad, tell your boy to do his fucking job for once so that he can get my support back. Or do you seriously expect me to give a fuck about possible .4% reductions in foreigner populations from historic highs? That was absolutely not what was promised and we both know it, though obviously you're like every other dickrider and think I shouldn't hold Trump accountable for his unfulfilled promises. Or did you forget that he promised to kick them out? I am guessing that is yet another unfulfilled promise his fanclub doesn't give a shit about because it makes Trump look like a loser.

Gunt guarding Trump does nothing either. Trump's first administration was absolutely fucking worthless, just like this one is shaping up to be, so of course he lost support. He had three years of failure, followed by a year of destroying American rights with lockdowns and doing absolutely NOTHING about six months of rioting niggers. The guy is a fucking joke, so why would people support him? He does nothing he promises. Where is that border wall? He has had six years to build it. I am sure it's juuust behind the million deportations a year he promised, and the reduced deficit, and the no regime change, and the no war, and Hillary Clinton getting imprisoned, and everything else he never followed through on, but you don't actually give a shit about what a joke the guy is because you just like silly TV man that cameo'd in movies when you were a kid.

Neocons demand that Republicans get support even as they are complete failures in every way that matters, it's actually laughable. I demand that the politicians that I voted for do what they promised to do, even if fanboys like you think that is an unreasonable expectation. Republicans can earn people's support by actually accomplishing what they promised to accomplish for once.

This really isn't anything new. Whenever GM wants to cut costs or downsize, they either eliminate positions or offer early retirement buyouts only to fill any positions still needed with some combination of contract workers or H1-B workers.

When GM was one of the clients for a previous job of mine, I witnessed this firsthand. GM needed to cut costs in the short-term future and offered a buyout to permanent non-union staff. Enough people took the buyout in the department we worked under that the company had to rehire a couple of the new retirees back as contract workers because they had nobody else who was able to do their jobs and it was cheaper for GM to do that than to deal with downtime that would cost them far more in lost productivity. I can't recall if IT at the GM site I worked at was in-house or outsourced, but I'm not surprised GM would embrace H1-B workers to handle its IT needs in its efforts to minimize costs. Nearly every bigger corporation I've worked at wants to pay as little as possible for IT support services.

It's part of larger trend with global corporate firms where cost-cutting rarely works as planned because the company either has to bring back some of the workers it let go as contract workers, or they import H1-B workers who cost the company in other ways. Their short-term decisions almost prove to be short sighted when they they ultimately fail to produce the desired long-term effects.

A guy I know who worked as a database programmer was let go by Experian and replaced by a Jeet... and then hired back on as an outside contractor with a pay raise because Jeets can't code for shit.
 
I don't know where the self-destructive mind set comes from since all my white higher ups are all about maximizing value/cutting the fat/the typical business mindset. I cannot comprehend the entrepreneurial mind that then brings in dead weight.

Yeah, we actually built some stuff for GM and Oh my God, those motherfuckers are cheap as fuck. I swear to God. A medium size fabrication shop we built. Was willing to pay us more than fucking billion dollar corporations for building housing and office space for them.
