- nobodyandproud 1y agoThat’s bad faith quip. The US is a competitive market with ground rules.
- rwmj 1y agoWhat does this have to do with outsourcing?
- nobodyandproud 1y agoIt’s about incentives. Direct impact: Outsourcing breeds a culture of unverified and verified-just-once remote work. Indirect impact: Outsourcing is a cost-driven effort where after a certain level of competence, the bottom-line is the only measurable metric that matters so it’s a race to the bottom with patchwork efforts to “fix” issues like OP. Making domestic options cost-equivalent with punitive outcomes for hiring NK workers.
- JumpCrisscross 1y agoThis is about in-house employees. Not outsourcing.
- nobodyandproud 1y agoMy mistake in term. I meant “off-shoring”. Otherwise, I stand by my argument. The support infrastructure we built to support remote work and offshore teams have made this an easy attack channel.
- lukaslalinsky 1y agoHow is it off-shoring if they are hiring "US citizens living in the US"?
- nobodyandproud 1y agoOh, so they’re interviewing in-person? Or perhaps, off-shoring support and infrastructure is what enabled and made-normal this sort of remote interviewing and work in the first place.
- bigfatkitten 1y agoThis has nothing to do with outsourcing. These guys are getting hired as permanent employees as often as they’re being engaged as contractors.
- nobodyandproud 1y agoMy mistake. I meant “off-shoring”. This is only possible in the scale we see today, because of the infrastructure built to support off-shore and remote work.
