donkulator329925dYou're assuming the purpose of the company is to develop software.
If the purpose of the company is for managers to collect impressive bullet points for their CVs, then outsourcing can be really effective. -
lungdart350025dOutsourcing never works out, so it's a great option for projects that don't matter but don't die

jestdotty615224dI'm in favour of outsourcing because going to an office when I code software on a laptop just seems dumb.
that's the actual battle in the business class' head. remote work or chain you to a physical office
they can't tell quality of work. though an Indian disliking outsourcing is pretty funny -
jestdotty615224d@donkulator the purpose of the company is to feed the man children that are middle management their sadistic power hungry souls with your hopefully not yet consumed soul, repeat

lorentz1544124dAs much as I agree, foreign salaries are probably the second largest lifting force acting on the Hungarian job market after starvation, so I can't help but promote globalism even at the cost of production quality.

lorentz1544124dThe same is true for many parts of India according to my friends there, and at one point it was true for Nigeria. The drains on undeveloped economies that are transnationals exist either way, and outsourcing carries the potential for a funnel in the other direction providing that remote workers spend their money at local chains.
I am against the idea of outsourcing dev jobs.
Every software company should hire in-house devs, that live in the same country/region the company is in.
