Outsourcing (Score 2, Insightful)

I was just thinking, is outsourcing really that great? The first thing that comes to mind when I think of outsourcing is ValueJet. They outsourced almost everything. It didn't work out too well. There is one group in the company I work for that is almost entirely populated with Indians. They also happen to be the group that got the company succesfully sued for over $250 million. Maybe you get what you pay for. In addition I wonder why there doesn't seem to be an even distribution of Indian IT workers in this country. Around here at least it seems a company has 75% Indian developers or 1%. Maybe I'm paranoid but is there maybe some sort of preference here. I noticed that one of the people in this article that was so high on outsourcing to Inida had a very Indian sounding name. Could it be possible he's exiticed about all the males in his family being exectives. "Don't believe the hype!" - Flavor Flav
