Very true sadly. Don't see many outsourced HR and accounts sections though.

Sad part is that when it goes wrong it does effect the balance sheet. Even sadder is how they internaly cost IT and do it wrong. Remove the IT and see how many people/time is needed to do the same job and that is the true cost/potentual impact of IT. Sadly though that is never done and only comes to light when things fail and then they blame IT and not the effects of seagul managment, budget cuts etc.

Oh man. Please, please, please outsource HR. Preferably to Mars. Biggest waste of space in the whole company.
