first time I saw that was by the look up of a manager of a Fortune 100 company. He used it to track the improvements his company was making and seeing where they were negligent. No one wants to wind up on the list.

6. Interesting but
I checked for several companies that I know send tech jobs to India (lots of them) and they don't appear on this list. This makes me fear that outsourcing is even wider spread than believed. :(

(Unless this site only reports on manufacturing or something? :shrug:)

11. Not the most current info, for sure...
Considering I was just laid off a couple weeks ago and my company isn't even a blip on the radar, despite being the 24th largest company in the world.
