- xenonite 2y agoNo, SAP is German software. And there are many other software companies in Germany, albeit with much less publicity.
- hobofan 2y agoHalf of German software is SAP-infected due to that fact that if you are targeting German companies you have to interface with SAP sooner or later, and every option I've encountered to do that in the past was awful.
- woadwarrior01 2y agoIMO, it's a culture thing. Even German software companies think writing software is low-status and try to outsource as much of it as possible to Eastern Europe.
- tobias3 2y agoIt's the eastern european development strategy. Have lower taxes on software engineering to grow that industry.
- ahartmetz 2y agoNot all of them. I'd have more trouble finding work if it was true. By the way, IME Eastern Europe is the best outsourcing destination if you want good quality for somewhat less money. There are not so good companies as well, but the only good "outsourcing code" I have seen was from there. I think it's really mostly mechanical engineering companies that undervalue software. My main client is one, they actually do value software so it's a decent environment. Unfortunately still rare.
- the_duke 2y agoEastern European developers are pretty awesome, in my experience. Otherwise I agree.
