Thread regarding Molina Healthcare Inc. layoffs

Molina Offshoring

The business consistently makes massive mistakes in offshoring IT work. The quality is extremely poor and barely works. It also takes about three offshore resources to do the work of one full time employee and offshore resources have little interest in the long term maintainability of what they are doing. For most of them this is just a contract job that they won't have to think about ever again after six months to a year.

Molina already spends way too much money on offshoring work because it looks cheaper on paper until the walls start to crumble because the contractors were not passionate about building the best solutions, only the fastest most backwards solutions possible. They are incentivized to write code that breaks or is not maintainable.

Its a terrible deal when you factor in that the amount of time it takes to complete work is about three times longer and that offshore developers are not supposed to think critically to improve processes and do exactly what they are told without considering if there is a better approach.

This is what's Molina's doing:

It's a shift to low cost resources, and they will get what they pay for.

Will end up like Experian...
