Indeed. The sad thing is there are a few who think they are still saving tons of money. I remember one company that set up in Bangalore. Just about all work had to be redone in the States.

However, the execs said it was the best move they ever did!

Hmmm? Maybe we can outsource the execs?

The execs ARE saving a lot of money. On their private accounts. The salary of a manager is almost proportional to the number of his/her subordinates. There's nothing better than a bunch of cheap expendable workers somewhere far off in this regard.

Enjoy the last years of Rome.

I found this thread a bit racist. I've seen excellent code coming from anywhere in the world ( Bangalore one of them) and very-bad-written perl code from US developers. It all depends on the skills and as interviewer it is my responsibility to determine no only the skills but their weaknesses and set an appropriate ramp-up process for whoever we hire
