IBM to Workers: Avoid Layoffs by Outsourcing Yourself
IBM has created a new program called Project Match to help workers laid off from its U.S. sites obtain a visa and find jobs at IBM sites in other countries. Most openings are located in developing countries like India, China and Brazil. IBM is promoting these jobs by noting the climate is warm, the food is exotic, and the cost of living is very low. Of course, wages are also very low, typically pennies-on-the-dollar compared to U.S. salaries.
