Today I'll write "coping skills." I see that WiPro has dropped its pay in employment offers by 50%

Also, being adept at learning and using AI/ML is now in demand.

rproffitt, what is WiPro?

farman, I would answer this question by saying experience with both front end and back end development nowadays. I don't mean the developer needs to also be the designer / UI/UX person, but AJAX, websockets, etc. have made it necessary for backend devs to also have a strong grasp of frontend html, javascript, CSS.

In terms of the single most essential skill nowadays, I would say Javascript. That, and maybe a CSS framework like Sass.

It's a very large IT company in India. Some companies I consulted with used them.

And they cut their offers by 50%? Oof! At least that's better than all of the companies announcing huge layoffs.
