How would the local workforce currently handling consumer service and accounting & billing services react when the undergo layoff process of the duties are shifted to India? The second value in tension involves the response to the local community who hosts the company in case of shifted services to India. How will the local community respond to a company that seeks offshore jobs that were critical for community development? The third value in tension involves the survival of the company in case of turning down the proposal for off-shoring services to India.
