A report by
research and consulting firm Forrester Research mentions
that, jobs which are lost in United states because of
software outsourcing are primarily low salary IT jobs.
These jobs are like software programming or computer
support specialists or computer operators. But on the
other hand, high end high paying jobs like system
analysts, network analysts and research analysts have
seen continuous and stronger growth. Jobs in this niche
market is growing steadily at the rate of 4 to 5% every
year. These jobs which require stronger domain knowledge
and knowledge of internal working of IT systems and
business process are difficult to software outsource.
Which jobs will not get affected by software outsourcing
Jobs for software engineers for the position of system
analysis and application development implementation are
also growing at the rate of 6% a year. This is because,
though software outsourcing can be done to India or
other offshore software development locations, customers
require in-house staff for customization and maintenance
of purchased software.
Why Software outsourcing will decrease
Report also mention that, attraction of cost saving in
software outsourcing is yet very high and because of
that, increase in jobs like software programmer will be
very minimal. Also, because of very low increase in
software programming jobs, salary rise will also hardly
1% in next few years. Salary of computer operators and
database administrators will also grow at barely 1%
rate. On the other hand, report also mentions about jobs
which will have highest salary rise. Salaries of
computer research scientists and information system
managers will have highest growth which will be around
3.5% every year. While salaries of analysts and system
administrators will grow at the rate of 2 to 3% every
year.
Conclusion about offshore software development
Report concludes with note that software outsourcing
which has major costs saving today will decrease by
2008. Because in US salary rise will be very less. While
in India and other offshore software development
destination, because of lack of availability of
resources, salary rise will be very high. This will
decrease the difference between salary of Indian and US
software engineer and eventually decrease costs saving.
So many companies will prefer in-house resources rather
then software outsourcing.
