Good idea but only issue is a lot of these rural areas have an unreliable internet connection. We have a few people who WFH out in rural areas and they constantly have connection/audio issues in our meetings.
This is true but there are a ton of people that are considered “rural” that live in subdivision of cities that are 30K-50K people

Wasn’t there a story about a guy making around $100k and subcontracted his work to someone in India for 25% of his salary. Then he got a side gig
I am researching outsourcing call center jobs for a family member's business. I was pretty amazed to see that there are actually people in India getting...let's just say $10 an hour for a job but they will turn around and outsource that job themselves to someone for $5.
They are outsourcing the outsource. It's amazing. The biggest thing I learned is that some people are starting to look into hiring call center people in South America. The reasoning being that their accents can be more clear for some American customers. Pretty fascinating IMO.

I work in b4 consulting.
My cost rate (not bill rate) is $148/hr. India same-level resource is $35/hr.
There is significant barriers to understanding our culture and problem solving as stated. One of the biggest benefits we try to leverage is a 24 hour workforce increasing our velocity.

south america/mexico still gives additional workers on same hours. easier to interact with the low cost center. they have a lot closer culture to usa. i guess in some businesses the 24 hour coverage is needed. south a. engineering support has more common sense than india.

If they take instructions well, then it’s cool waking up in the morning and having a presentation clean and ready to roll. I rarely found that to be the case albeit the intention was there.

We don't do it now, but I did hire Pilipino workers for a while to do some basic work for the company I work for to keep me from having one of our local employees have to do it. Very menial type stuff. I'm embarrassed to say we paid them $5/hour through Upwork. Not sure what the cut was, but it did work for us.
We use developers in India now. I get 2 full time developers for $6K/month. I expect one full time developer in the US would cost me at least $100K/year. The work gets done a little slower, but they also have shown themselves to be available nights, weekends, basically whenever I have an issue, which I think I might have trouble with in the US.

What type of dev work?

I avoid working with them tbh. It’s an extra job managing them.
