When it comes to losing good people, absolutely NOT!

When it comes to an opportunity to shine, absolutely! You know as well as anyone that when it gets outsourced, it's going to come back with some really crap code in it and that it's going to hit "tipping points" where performance and scalability jumps right in the toilet. And, I'll just bet you and your team know how to fix it! AND, when you and your team do fix it, make darned sure that management is made fully aware of the before and after performance so that the next time they get a real case of ignorance going, you can remind them that IT isn't just a cost center... it's a value center! 🙂
