Insight Global, however, is moving in the opposite direction.<\/p>\n<p>The metro Atlanta-based talent, consulting, and tech company announced plans to hire more than 1,700 full-time employees in 2026 to support growing demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure projects, enterprise transformation initiatives, and technical talent. The hiring push will span consulting, technical delivery, recruiting, sales, and corporate operations, according to a company <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/insightglobal.com\/news\/insight-global-expands-workforce-to-meet-surging-demand-for-ai-infrastructure-and-enterprise-transformation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">press release<\/a>. The expansion comes as organizations across industries accelerate AI adoption and seek workers with the skills to build, deploy, and manage AI-powered systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor 25 years, we\u2019ve been finding the right people to solve hard problems,\u201d said Bert Bean, CEO of Insight Global, in a statement. \u201cToday, one of the hardest problems in business is unlocking real value from AI. You can\u2019t outsource transformation to software. You need people who know how to build and run it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bean added, \u201cWe\u2019re investing in our workforce so we can keep helping our customers move faster while creating meaningful career opportunities for thousands of people.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>The company said its hiring strategy is designed to support a growing pipeline of AI engagements, including multiple projects tied to some of the nation\u2019s largest AI infrastructure developments. The investment follows the recent launch of IG Labs, Insight Global\u2019s AI services and products practice, as well as its new Solutions Associates Program, which aims to develop early-career technical talent. <\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/insightglobal.com\/\">Company leaders say skilled workers\u2014not technology\u2014are the defining factor in successful AI implementation<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe biggest differentiator in the AI space is access to people who know how to implement it,\u201d said Cillian Maher, president of Insight Global\u2019s consulting division. \u201cBy investing in new talent across consulting, delivery, and engineering, we\u2019re giving customers the expertise they need to accelerate faster.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Insight Global said the hiring expansion comes as many companies are slowing or freezing recruitment efforts. According to the company, overall demand for its services has increased by 15% year over year, while AI-specific demand has surged by 136% in early 2026. Insight Global added that it remains committed to investing in employee development despite rapid advances in automation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven as AI reshapes the future of work, Insight Global remains committed to its purpose of developing its people personally, professionally, and financially so they can Be the Light to the world around them,\u201d the company said in its announcement. The company\u2019s continued investment reflects its belief that technology creates greater opportunity when paired with exceptional people.<\/p>\n<p>For more information about Insight Global\u2019s job openings,\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/careers.insightglobal.com\/insightglobal-careers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">visit here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>RELATED CONTENT: Workday Loses Bid To Dismiss AI Hiring Bias Lawsuit Filed By Older Black Worker<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>AI-generated image via Magnific by Selena Hill July 13, 2026 Companies are ramping up investments in AI infrastructure and enterprise transformation.
