I think part of this is perhaps a shift in strategy among big non-tech companies. They used to be extremely aggressive about outsourcing and offshoring tech roles. My sense is that this strategy is changing among many of them as they come to see technology as a core profit center for them.
- dkarapetyan 10y agoThe only time technology is a core profit center is if technology is the actual business. Just because a business requires technology doesn't mean it can be turned into a profit center. Most businesses just shuffle paper but now they do it digitally. At best that's a cost saving strategy. You need something else to make it a profit center and few businesses are in a position to do so and even fewer decision makers have the willpower and foresight to make it happen at said businesses.
