2/4/04: This week, Sprint reported that it will outsource almost 6,000 jobs to IBM in a cost-cutting measure. While this is a terrific effort to save jobs and improve the bottom line for both companies, it’s not quite a boon for the US labor market. In reality, these 6,000 jobs are in the customer-service and information-technology areas. And you know what that means, don’t you? These jobs will most likely go overseas. At this point, this story is getting beaten to death. However, as each corporation is taking important measures to ensure long-term prosperity and health, the short-term approach may actually do more harm than good. At some point, the exodus of well-paying jobs overseas will leave fewer people at home to buy these company’s products and services.
