HORRIBLE trend and this is exactly why America's economy is in the shape it's in. Let's hire people to work long hours with little compensation then dump them when we don't need them any longer. Who the heck writes this crap???
It's becoming more popular, though. I've had a few jobs within 10 years and all were direct hire, now all I'm finding available out there are contract/temporary positions.
I'd say it would affect IT folks at the lower end, but not so much for the highly-skilled and experienced b/c they won't give two shits about this. What I am curious to know is what type of precaution Modis takes to prevent from being cut out of the picture.
what im waiting to know is how are the newbies able to advance to that level?? if they cant find the time out of their **job** to go to classes, to be able to pay for that education..
its a swirl of madness and that's exactly what they (this guy) wants.
they want to be able to control this hyper-expanding career that nothing seems to affect.
Gotta be honest... I have no idea what they are talking about but that fireplace is FOR A BOSS! I'd be having hella bonfires in my house with that thing! @_@
Yup, hiring models like this are what is killing our economy. Deminishing benefits and worker conditions all for cheaper and more "efficient" labor for the employer. Chris should be ashamed for supporting bullshit like this, hopefully he was paid well to do this at least.
You're absolutely right. Previously, it is a gradual process for companies to reduce and/or close down their IT department after the hardware and software infrastructures are set up; and then there's compensations. With this model, companies have the ability to scale with minimum overhead by "procuring" "Flexible Workforce". Companies no longer need an IT department. We're just a buncha whores no one marries.
Pay them peanuts, work them long hours with poor compensation, make everybody "on call" so nobody knows when or where they'll be working. Sounds like high tech jobs are going the way of migrant workers. Hey wait a minute! How are they getting reembursed for their travel? They're not! I've seen this crap before and it stinks! I've worked for employers who want workers to "punch out" when it's slow and hang around the break room until it gets busy, then "clock in". It's bullshit!

bluntly, this plan would turn IT specialists into whores for the middlemen hired by organizations.
if this happens the onsite IT field would collapse and the only way out would be by finding another career.
i have no pity for the people that think this is a great idea

is off shore the proper terminology, I thought that was basically outsourcing. Off shore just sounds a bit racist to me in its use.

@Hodenkat That is so true in sectors which are becoming stagnant. That's because IT has very flunctuating demands.
