Several years ago, many companies decided to cut costs by moving help desks etc. to India. Many have come to regret that decision, due to the poor quality "help". In another thread, I mentioned how many put cost ahead of value and we get garbage as a result. "
My comments are about how we were promised that if we moved into areas such as IT, we'd be set for life.
I fail to see how I can reach the conclusion you want me to by reading your comment.
The low cost work, such as manufacturing cheap goods would be done offshore. Well, it appears more and more of the good stuff is also moving offshore.
What is this "good stuff" that is moving offshore? From what I can see, stuff that is higher up the value chain is still in North America, and is still going to remain here. And for a very simple economic reason. It costs the same $ value.
