I waited a few hours to see if anyone would jump in, but
no one has, so here I go:
I have the impression that SI is one of the few disciplines for
which there are still jobs to be had, judging from the postings
on this list. Maybe not as many as a year ago, and maybe not
always in the right geographical location, but there still are
some.
But I suppose, being comfortably employed myself, and not
in any apparent danger of being "downsized," I am perhaps
not in touch with reality in quite the same way as someone
who is on the streets looking. I do have friends in other
lines of work who are looking (and have been for some time,
in some cases) and from that I know it's not too pretty right
now. But SI is, I think, less affected than other things.
