Did you not worry about the same at the peak of outsourcing boom? How is competing with the next generation of students any worse than competing with the whole world?
- rubicon33 9y agoI wasn't around at the height of the outsourcing hysteria, but I probably would have worried about it just like everyone else. I've actually been layed off before while working for a big company that outsourced to China. So, it's hard not to let that reinforce my worries. Granted, it was super easy to find a new job. Competing with the next generation of students is worrisome because I know some companies are hesitant to outsource due to the overheard of timezones, language, etc. But they'd love to pay their developers less. Nothing drives down salary like an employer's market.
