RE: why not outsource overseas to increase margin ?

Posted by deathtube 667 on June 11, 2020 at 03:12:30:
Product quality often takes a backseat to increased EBITDA, cash ROI and organic growth $$$.
Engineering is compromised by the finance department and executive leaders who have ZERO engineering experience.
The company I work for is constantly looking at cheaper materials and vendors (mostly non-US) in order to increase margin.
This wastes time that could be invested into new product development. Instead our lab is spending time on qualifying new vendors.
Common sense is a relic of the past.
