ServiceNow is facing growing backlash after immigration-linked software engineering job advertisements resurfaced online during a period of widespread tech layoffs and rising anxiety over AI-driven job disruption. The viral ads, reportedly connected to the company’s immigration department, sparked criticism from labor activists and immigration critics who questioned whether American tech workers are being overlooked despite ongoing unemployment across the software industry. The controversy comes as ServiceNow’s stock faces pressure amid broader fears that artificial intelligence could disrupt traditional SaaS business models, adding to wider debates around foreign hiring, automation, and the future of high-paying tech jobs in the United States.
