Maybe this is a form of “Trickle Down Economics”? The U.S.A. Company gets tax breaks, saves on employee salaries and benefits and therefore "hires more workers in the United States". (Sure!)
More probable: The executives increase his/her wage package, benefits and golden parachute. It is all very clear! :)

>>Long before out-sourcing became an economic issue here in the U.S., many large corporations already had branches and factories in foreign countries. Their executive U.S. employees often were transferred to these other countries but continued to make the standard U.S. salary. If my company did as this company did, I would be trying very hard to relocate (by being transferred to or assigned to) to India. Imagine the money you could save after working and living in India while making a U.S. salary! While I consider this a form of outsourcing - afterall, there is nothing preventing the company from moving everything to India except for their corporate headquarters as others have done - it may actually strengthen the company which in the longrun may promote more hires here in the U.S. and could promote economic growth here in the U.S. as well.
