If this isn't related to cost, what is it related to? Quality? "Consolidation" is a bit misleading if so. Seconded on more sources needed.

- eloisant 12y agoCutting employees in India instead of US or Europe is clearly not a way to reduce cost.
- mechazawa 12y agoSo it's quallity?
- TheHypnotist 12y agoI don't know the salaries of Yahoo US vs Yahoo India, but please explain how cutting employees in any country isn't a way of reducing costs.
- crpatino 12y agoPresumably cutting down 2000 jobs in India would achieve the same cost saving as cuting ~500 jobs in US/EU.
- yarper 12y agoProviding they are of equal skill, that's true. The article suggests it's not because of cost, that just leads me to ask why they would do it.
- ambrood 12y agoSome of the smartest colleagues I had at Yahoo were based in India. The way Yahoo worked, all interesting projects/teams were based in SNV with satellite offices working on maintenance projects and legacy stuff. So sunsetting of projects might explain this.
