Inorder to not be 'doomed' get some "business facing" elements into your role role where you are involved in some requirements gathering etc -
As I can tell you there is no way the actual management who make these decisions to outsource actually want to deal with the outsourced lot directly in the meetings!!!

Bear in mind that (my ex-clientco) has tuliploads of staff and contractors - I happen to know that this won't affect customers. I do, however, know a few who are personally affected by this, and extend my sympathies - this is a horrible time for them.

Agency sources are incorrect. It is ridiculous to state that there are only 250 contractors in the whole group, and only 150 permies.
This offshoring exercise affects only a small part of the bank.

Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostIt is different in this case.
80% of the technical jobs are going, never to return. Only a skeleton IT function remains in the whole of the UK. Any growth in IT will be accommodated in India.
Doomed. It's the future.
Ah well.
