Issues with offshoring giants like Tata & Infosys is - Engineers are often discouraged to exhibit autonomy & make decisions on their own. It's rather an untold rule across the industry to channel all decisions & difficulties via their manager. I'll give an example - We once asked our offshore-engineer (contractor) to share their personal email ID for a github invite for we knew that he had one readily at his disposal. Using gmail for work is a big deal for IT offshoring companies. The guy, instead of sharing his concerns about his directives & security guidelines directly with us, called his manager who replied to our email asking us to stick to Enterprise email IDs.
