Are the hundreds of off shore resources added since the beginning of the year actually delivering anything of quality to the product? Or will it end up being yet another one of those failed off shore experiments where the full time employees (at the next company) end up having to fix their code?

Interesting that posts are being deleted, I thought this site wasn't moderated?
Every offshore person is a joke at that company. The full timers have to practically make work for them and hold their hand to do it. They take no initiative or ownership mainly because they have no skills. They don't know what to do. Like I said it is a joke. Management is forcing full timers to "make" this investment worth while. Ridiculous. No one likes it here anymore.
For the folks that remember, look back at what happened with HzERM. All development was off-shored and was the biggest flop for MPT/EIS to date (2006-2009). Look no further than that example.
Offshore and quality cannot be used in the same sentence
'Horrible' is an understatement. We've had our share of incompetent developers, but they've previously been kept in a pen where they're damage can be controlled before they retire. Now that ratio is more like 100:1.
Competency is not a pre-requisite for these offshore people. It is horrible.
