outsourcing:)

link: http://jobs.lovetoknow.com/Pros_and_Cons_of_Outsourcing

My opinion on outsourcing is that it can be good in way if you look at it in the business man´s point of view,
but probably not so very good for a worker. In the article I found it mainly talked about the pros and cons about
outsourcing, one of the pros was that it was cheaper labor so the owners of the company pay less for the job
and the company gets more benefits. Mostry the jobs are in developing countries and so the labor is cheaper due to
lower living costs.
Another pro would be the focus on the core business, many times when you have a business you sometimes you can only focus
on the important stuff and you can´t pay attention to all so many companies outsource the other stuff they can´t pay as much attention.
So that is also a plus.
But in any case there is also cons, such as, employees feel threatened. This means that when they know that some jobs are being
outsourced they may think their job is next so that can cause many empoyees to quit their job.
Another cons is the loss of control, this is because when you let other people handdle your job it can a little bit aout of sontrol and maybe costumers
may not have the same service you would have liked.
Basically the people who get benefit from aoutsourcing are the owners od the company and I think that the people that could be hurt by it would be the
workers of the costumers becuase maybe they won´t get the same service.

    This is what I think is the best advantage. You can focus on the really important stuff and the center of your company while another company does what is less important. Very good article priscilla and I agree with what you think :)

  2. I agree with the loss of control, because if you are trying to to give a good service to the costumers, everything has to be under control.

    and yes, about the benefits of outsourcing, the only ones who can really say that outsourcing is giving them a better life are the owners of the big companies.
