Sofware Developer salaries in India

Is it normal for companies to remove remote contractor roles after hiring? I accepted a role advertised as fully remote contractor work, but later the company said they were reconsidering some remote roles due to business performance and process changes. Remote work was part of the original setup. How common is this, and is it generally considered fair practice for contractor positions?

I have been noticing how software engineering is shifting toward defining problems, designing systems, and guiding outcomes while AI handles more of the coding. It feels like the focus is moving from writing every line to understanding what should be built and why. With voice driven tools and coding agents evolving, the role itself may look very different soon. Does this shift mean developers need to rethink their skills rather than their careers?
