It's now called Globalisation is it is a wonderful thing. It means we can still have a fantastic living without actually working and everything becomes cheaper for us.
My last contract role got outsourced to the Philippines by Accenture once it was becoming more of a support job. If it's possible to outsource something they will. I think the consultancies are a bit more cautious about developing new stuff offshore unless they can get a dumb enough client to foot the bill for the ensuing mess.
Yes, but the cost benefits seem to be eroding fast, especially in India.
Wage inflation in India is arond 15% so yes the benefits are eroding slightly. However there is still a significant enough gap to make it an attractive proposition given the right circumstances.
