> if companies hate WFH, then why would they like outsourcing? It's basically the same problem, except with 3000 miles and 12 hour timeshifts and a language barrier.
C-suites and shareholders don't often see this logical link. They see WFH as a temporary inconvenience during the pandemic that must be reversed. Some companies have done poorly during the pandemic, and there is pressure to get back to the "good old ways" without any root cause analysis for the poor performance. On the other hand, outsourcing is still seen as a cost-saving measure.
In short: WFH :(, outsourcing :). "Why?" is a worthless question. Good yes men don't ask "why?".
