IT pay jumps as skills gap widens

IT Angle

On-shore but off-shore

In the sector of IT I currently work in the company I work for has discovered that it is increasingly hard to compete with those companies who offer offshoring (mainly India, but now being undercut by East Europeans) at off shore prices/rates but the people actually work here in UK on the client's site. Something that perhaps should be addressed to level the playing field for UK workers who by comparison seem alot more expensive.

(If you've got this far down the comments, then well done!)

Am I the only person who was amused at the interpretation of Socialism:

" ...unless they simply like the idea of getting things for free at other people's expense, by force—a basic definition of Socialism. (or stealing, depending on whose dictionary you're using)..."

I've no idea of this person's agenda or motives, but I suspect they are based on a very skewed interpretation of the world and their place in it.
