Re: Unionized cuts starting at Bell
Its a country called INDIA, why pay someone big bucks (relatively speaking) when you can have the "office work" done in India.
Alternatively you bring in new bodies, reclassify the jobs and pay them less. |

Calgary, AB | I know how outsourcing works. I was asking where specifically these jobs were outsourced to. Because unions like to use "outsourcing" as a war cry without any substantiation.
Thank you noelstrom for providing concrete information. |

It is actually quiet close to critical massing with internal growth as well.
While a lot of jobs can be done in other locations, they do not always end up there. A lot of growth is going on in the Eastern European countries, China, etc.
As an IT guy, my job is not to complain about outsourcing, but be someone who can work with the reality. |
