[QUOTE="dudebro, post: 3715001, member: 11234"] People look at "IT" as a monolith, as though outsourcing is a binary choice. In other words, people think either IT is done in-house OR it's totally done remotely from overseas. The fact is, you need both. I work directly with overseas IT teams. They're good for the basics. But you still need a project manager with enough business knowledge to tell the overseas what to put in the programs. Someone has to describe the context of various projects, so, you'll still need IT workers on both sides. If you're in IT, and you're doing just basic coding that anyone could do, you're a prime candidate to be outsourced. If you're codifying rules that very few people are aware of, they can't just find anyone to replace you. As my stepdad used to say, "just don't be a useless". [/QUOTE]
