Care to elaborate? Are we talking about a large local company? 

I think if anyone wants to have any job in development for the long haul,
better move to India....I recently read a story about Oracle: they kept
about the same staff worldwide - jobs were cut here, but
there were jobs created on Oracle's India campus(es). And they plan on
moving all development there, according to who you believe. Here are some
links about Oracle:

Oracle's hardly unique in this matter, of course. But since they are #2
largest software developer in sales - it doesn't bode well for my (and
other American developers') future.

I'm not being entirely facetious about moving, either. I don't want to be
forced to change careers - I love coding. But if things continue the way
they are going....I'll have little choice. I guess the question is whether
they will let the average American emigrate there.
