BPO's and IT Industry
by SM on Oct 26, 2005 06:10 PM

I agree with the comment 'Slave Ship' when it comes to BPO and IT industry in India.A better coinage could be a 'Sex Trade' or 'Brothel'.Indian people are sold on thir skills and ability to take up unending hours of routine 'dry'jobs' that the West detest.

Even being in US,I see that all Indians work more hours than needed and do coding jobs that a US 'buddy' will not want to do.

I am convinced that under the disguise of glossy and chic' IT environments and pep-talks, there is a young talented Indian who is slowly killing his youth,joy and family life,in the hope of making a few more 'bucks'.

I also feel that in this kind of model (Of cheap labor and English speaking skills),China and East-Europe can over-take us, where they just need to cross the language barrier.
