Microsoft outsourcing high-end jobs, union says

SeattlePI | at | by Mike

A Seattle-based labor union says newly surfaced documents show that Microsoft has looked to outsource to Indian companies high-level jobs in software architecture and development.

The union, WashTech, says the previously confidential agreements between Microsoft and Indian outsourcing companies Infosys Technologies and Satyam Computer Services debunk the popular notion that only lower-level technology positions are vulnerable to outsourcing.
