Yeah, while working for his previous employer my husband had the opportunity to travel to India to help move some of their jobs overseas. :-/ He left shortly after that experience. In this case, let's just say that the decision was not based on the quality of the finish product...

The sudden loss of IT jobs in this country is at least partly attributable to jobs moving to countries with cheap labor, like India or China. When I was at a big blue company a few years back I saw jobs moving to India that used to be in Raleigh. Maybe part of it was caused by IT guys hopping from job to job every 6 to 18 months in pursuit of higher pay, and employers scrambling to retain talent as long as they could. Loyalty in the workplace is *gone*, with blame falling on both sides of the employee/employer relationship.
