Of Outsourcing Jobs

Is outsourcing work a generally good or bad thing?

Depends on what role, what the reasons are and why. I helped offshore 300 roles to East Asia and, financials aside the service provided went up due to coverage. 

But primarily companies offshore as a simple money saving option, which is the wrong way to view it. 

 
Depends.

Though too much outsourcing isn't going too well for us in the West right now, is it? And I'm not even talking so much about Russia but more about the fact how China's harbors are months behind on shipping due to their restrictive covid laws. Or the fact that the blockade of the Suez Canal disrupted international trade in a way that a backup for months was created.

I'm not sure calling evergiven getting stuck a blockade is right. But yeah that did mess things up for a good long while.
