I am with you on your stance on outsourcing. But we decouple that narrative from various countries. Some of the software produced in Germany is absolute crap and I've seen software made locally in India be a lot better in quality. For eastern european countries I onow for fact that the developers there dont compromise on salary esp the educated ones. Just because a country isnt as rich doesnt mean that they are worse in every aspect. By that logic Saudi Arabia or UAE would be a power house.
- bottled_poe 5y agoI absolutely agree with this. Sure, there are a lot of bad developers in India, but guess what? There are also bad developers everywhere else on this planet. People forget that the scale of the pool of developers over there is huge and they overlook the exceptional talent, which while a small fraction of the whole market is still an enormous number of resources.
- foepys 5y agoJust to be clear: I never made a statement about quality of software. It's mostly because of timezones, cultural differences, and language. I specifically mentioned India because more than one consulting firm told me that India would be the future and software developers would not be needed in Germany anymore, only project managers.
