It's so shameless innit? He puts on the veneer of caring about quality, but then gives up the game by admitting the real goal is the cheapest labor possible coughslaverycough. Why stop at Romania if you want cheap labor? Just outsource it all to India or Nigeria, we all know you would do it in a heartbeat if your precious quarterly profits were on the line.
Edit: didn't realize the guy was Romanian so at least the shilling makes more sense, but I still get the feeling he's not doing his employees any favors.
A former employer of mine used to work with a Belarus team (long before the attack on Ukraine). And another company I used to work for is partnering with a company from Ghana. They are called AmaliTech and do mostly Salesforce related stuff. If it's done properly, that's a good thing. African talents get international experience and a well paying job without leaving their country. As long as they are seen as real team members with proper contracts, onboarding, and as long as they aren't replaced every three weeks.
