You are woefully ignorant here. There are lots of cultural challenges (ex: IME young Indians jump jobs even more frequently than young Americans), the time zone coordination, corporate organization, matching client time zone & culture, etc. Talent is not an issue.

Even blind statistics are not in your favor.

Yet both of you align to the same answer: replacing us employees with Indian remote workers is less likely for a number of reasons.

But that said, you're also both ignoring relocation of the enterprise as a whole: employ Indians in India.

I don't think you realize LATAM such as Brazil and CR is becoming the go-to destination for outsourcing, not India. IME, it's much more stable in SA than India.
