It’s a very interesting point. I’ve worked with some very skilled devs from HCL. I’ve also seen them turn over to other firms because of salary and other firm related issues. I don’t think that piece has anything or very little to do with the fact that they are Indian. However the organizational culture is definitely flawed and it does appear to be more prevalent in large fixed bid outsourcing arrangements. I’ve witnessed it first hand being brought in to resolve issues created by the outsourcer on projects as large as 1/2bn. They difference between those projects is the mission. Those project were critical on a financial basis. This was and aircraft with peoples life’s on the line. No one dev or otherwise can say they didn’t know this code was going on an airplane. No matter their salary.
