A new approach to offshoring

[vetran]

report it, they may not be entitled to Visas.

In my current contract they off-shored and then took all the Indians onshore in th eUK officeso they can keep an eye on them.
Second time I see this

Yes, I've seen this; it seems to be gaining pace. The term I heard for this is "offshore-onshoring"

[Eirikur]

Pay them the money, but keep doing the actual work on-shore. It saves time and money in the long run.

Offshoring gone mad

[vetran]

They "saved" a fortune in Budget A and the manager responsible got a whacking bonus though.

FTFY

Senior managers then yell at old staff that are left because they can't get a user that used to be done in 24 hours. You try not to laugh!

or even better give them the simple stuff and then get senior managers to fill in 6 page forms to get a new user which the offshore team then screw up. Getting the user fixed is another two calls (and costs). Senior managers then yell at old staff that are left because they can't get a user that used to be done in 24 hours. You try not to laugh!
