I have friends working as senior developers for GE in Poland. Basically US branch outsource project to Polish brand because they are paid peanuts in comparison, then part of the work is outsourced to India branch which is paid even less. I have ZERO respect for American mega-corps.

At my last job I worked exclusively with our Europe branch and European customers. 75% of the developers I worked with were contractors or consultant companies they outsourced to. More than half also had offshore India teams.

You’d recognize all the customers names and likely own their products.

Is Poland outsourcing to India, or direct from America to India? The former reminds me of the guy who outsourced his own job to India?
