| The 2005 salary surveys paint a good
picture for those that are deciding to outsource their
programming and coding work to offshore destinations.
Taking the case of India, the “undisputed leader” in
outsourcing destinations according to most salary
survey and reviewers, the gain due to offshoring is
much more evident and realizable.
Consider this: An on-shore programmer’s salary in
US is a whopping $57,000 per annum. Compare this to a
programmer with equal or better skills and experience
in India: anywhere between $10,000 and $15,000!
According to most salary surveys anything below
$15,000 is a clean go-ahead for outsourcing to India.
