Svantaggi
Pressure is on, long hours, short term objectives, no long term planning. Multi layer management, little rewards, no training ( apart from silly "how to sit on your chair" health & safety stuff) USA driven by guys in ivory towers with the bottom line in site all the time. If you don't work in Aldershot, you don't exist! Question: If CSC take a workload on that was managed by 5 systems programmers at customer site, how many CSC system programmers will it take to manage it? Answer ... You and 2 indians who know nothing about it, can barely speak english & who leave a few months later ... oh, by the way that's managing it alongside your other 20-30 systems as well and ...... whoops, sorry , just been outsourced to another major supplier myself!
