They can’t mandate RTO, it would be a big loss for fiserv.

Coral is crawling with H1 B employees. They're here taking jobs away from others who are equally as capable and don't need sponsorship.
At Fiserv? No way it’s that high. It might have been when JY left. Might. Under 10% now and reducing.
Probably because when they become better if they do they leave for 20% more salary.
@dp+1jgpx64eq that would be a great idea if so many people in India were untrainable to do certain quality of tech work... At least the ones at Fiserv.
Most onshore resources were originated from offshore that were trained by us anyway, just look around. So it's probably a good idea just train them in India instead of moving them here.
Hint: This is exactly the direction the company is going.
:: Or think it this way. Any job that can be done remotely is a job can be offshored.
Not always. if offshored jobs require sync up with core team with significant time zone difference, it would be very difficult to do.
Quit with the "any job that can be done remotely can be done offshore" BS. The truth is any job short of face to face retail can be offshore. And those f2f jobs can be swapped out with a self-help kiosk. Companies aren't keeping jobs here to benefit us. They're doing it because the cost of offshoring and kiosks is still just a tiny bit higher than abusing onshore staff to get the work done. Regardless of pushback, eventually those costs will tip in the companies favor, and they'll unload youand me faster than you can spell RTO. Maybe faster if a big jump forward in AI happens.
Any job that can be done remotely is a job can be offshored.
Not so sure about that. I’ve seen it tried and fail spectacularly for a number of roles. Much like when they tried to use development associates cross core, there is always a steep learning curve before you become productive. Fungible was the word of the day.
