| dc.description.abstract | As outsourcing to India has become a more prevalent part of business in the new millennium, IT workers in America have become weary of their current and future job prospects. An educated and process-oriented society in India provides U.S. businesses a way to concentrate on their core competencies, save money and improve workflow. While there are certain changes that will be introduced to the IT economy in America as a result of outsourcing, these changes do not necessarily negatively affect American IT workers. IT workers in America will find that they are faced with new opportunities either within their own company or at a new company. Workers may be able to move into roles where they will be designing and innovating more than they would have without outsourcing. For IT workers looking for a change, there may be other opportunities within their company to learn new facets of the business. For those who wish to stay within IT, new opportunities may exist with the company that is providing outsourcing to their company. Workers that choose to find a new company will have opportunities as IT jobs continue to be created within the economy. While the baby boomer generation begins to retire and reduced enrollment in technology education begins to affect IT recruitment, IT workers in American will find that the demand for their profession will continue to grow in the next decade. | |
