[QUOTE="hypo hanna, post: 1153064, member: 42600"] I'd say 90% of new hires in the tech area are foreign nationals here on work visas. Most outright hires don't stay long, (which is true of most techies). The rest are contract labor. Our software stinks and is in need of a major overhaul. They are in the process of doing this with the cosmos system, AKA the "green screen". FedEx talks big about how they are technologically advanced but they are way behind in the usefulness of its software to the end users. Part of it is the disconnect between the programmers and the people who have to use the product. The other part is FedEx is too cheap to retain competent code monkeys. They have been moving to web based applications for years now but few of the programs can interface with each other. [/QUOTE]
