RBS [Bank] computer failure 'caused by inexperienced operative in India'
The computer glitch at the Royal Bank of Scotland which left millions of customers unable to access their accounts could have been caused by just one junior technician in India, it was suggested last night.

The “inexperienced operative” accidentally wiped information during a routine software upgrade, it has been claimed.

The member of staff, who was working on the programme for the Royal Bank of Scotland, NatWest and Ulster Bank, is believed to have been based in Hyderabad, India.

According to technology website The Register, at least some of the team responsible for the error were recruited in India following redundancies in the department in the UK.

Unions have already blamed the fiasco on the decision to outsource much of the company’s IT jobs, as Indian staff are paid as little as £9,000, compared with £50,000 their British counterparts were paid.

Stephen Hester, chief executive of RBS, said that there was “no evidence” that outsourcing had caused the problems.

White American men have always had a problem paying workers, hence slaves, then sharecroppers, illegals, outsourcing, etc.

But hey, blame “liberal policies” that drive work overseas, because you don’t want to provide good working conditions, a livable wage, pay taxes, and offer healthcare for your employees brehs.

You see how this works? Boeing, the company, outsourced it's work to Indians, a people. The ire goes towards the people because Americans are so conditioned towards corporate fukkery they just give the obligatory "yeah fukk Boeing," then proceed to go on long winded rants about Indians. The goal is as it always is; blame brown people.

 

[Rarely-Wrong Liggins]

One more thing OP this is a 2 part issue. One Boeing engineers state side caught the program issue. But to save money Boeing took their time to update the software.

The FAA due to the shut down and cut backs of the clown trump administration agreed that the upgrades could be delayed. The certification standards that the FAA has are more lenient for planes that are derivative platforms. Meaning that since the 737 is an upgrade of a previous platform the FAA gave Boeing credit on safety certifications for the plane.

So it was an overall fukk up on everyones parts.

In the end it doesn't matter cause this administration won't do shyt to boeing. Trump literally placed a Boeing exec as the Pentagon's secretary of defense Patrick Shanahan (who just stepped down last week due to spousal abuse allegations). Boeing has huge connections to this administration which is a hat tip to the explosion of the stock since 2016.

Shut up breh, the Indians did it. No need for facts or analysis.

 

[O.T.I.S.]

It's like anything, skilled workers anywhere cost money. American companies with shyt to lose generally know this.

Nah thats not the point

They’re trying to cut corners by just having cheap labor anywhere

$9 an hour in india is probably like $90 an hour here for all i know but thats not the point. The point is they usually don’t know how to communicate or don’t know wtf they’re doing with a system and customers foreign to them.

Its more than just being smart and knowing how to program something or knowing math. They’re trying to outsource to cut corners because no IT person in their right minds would do shyt like this for $9 over here and they know that.

Same thing happened with an airport in the UK - allegedly.

British Airways IT meltdown: Staff union blames outsourcing to India as flight disruption continues

"London: More than a third of British Airways (BA) flights from London's Heathrow Airport have been cancelled, leaving thousands of passengers stranded for the second day today following a major global computer failure for which a workers' union blamed outsourcing to India."

Thousands of passengers had their travel plans disrupted as a result of the problem, with one workers union blaming the outsourcing of IT jobs to India for the chaos, a claim denied by the airline.

"We would never compromise the integrity and security of our IT systems," BA said in reference to GMB union's claim.

BA chief executive Alex Cruz had said it was believed "the root cause [of the computer problems] was a power supply issue".

British Airways boss ‘tries to gag staff’ over IT failure which hit 300,000 passengers after ‘inexperienced staff outsourced to India didn’t know to launch back up system’

THE British Airways boss is alleged to have tried to "gag staff" over the IT meltdown which hit 300,000 passengers - as inexperienced staff in India didn't know how to launch the back up system, it has been claimed.

And alm these companies are outsourcing to india because for some reason IT is booming over there and they will do shyt for next to nothing compared to over here

Problem is, they cut corners over there too and usually do shyt incorrectly. Plus, their lack of being able to communicate

I used to DREAD having to call these nikkas at like 4am in the morning on some weird 12 digit number only to barely not be able to understand shyt they’re asking for.

My college counselor is some random nikka in india and I hate talking to him to the point where i rather get a new counselor or switch schools. Not to mention his ass doesn’t listen and tries to downplay my IT skills despite me having higher certs than him when I started

I got to he said I had to “prove” to him I was ready to take on certs and kept giving me remedial bullshyt and I told him I don’t got to prove shyt to you, I only joined this school for certs. Either give me the classes I want or im going to switch counselors or schools because youre trash...

Not to mention every proctored exam i take its some hard to understand Indian dude setting my shyt up...

$9 an hour as an engineer?

As an engineer, I didn’t go through the tough curriculum to make McDonald wages. I wouldn’t even respond to that offer letter lol.

I guess that’s why they went to India.

This is a problem, though, and it’s not just Boeing doing it. We’ve got capable workers homegrown, it’s just you’re going to have to pay.

How can a legit engineer, anywhere around this planet, get paid $9 an hour?

mane @wildself i remember a few years ago you kept telling people to stop hyping up this STEM culture ...that it was more cons than pros to this hyped up field

and unfortuantly YOU WERE RIGHT

i had jumped on that STEM CULTURE bandwagon as well a few years back even influenced my home purchasing decision

the main reason i moved out to where i'm currently am is because the high school i wanted my son to end in another year is a S.T.E.M academy with strong ties to the industry

and the community as well is on the cutting edge of being a very high tech soon....

but boy oh boy you wasn't lying ..i work in this community as well....and since my firm got acquired by an Indian parent company

i done seen it all....from the dysfunctional I.T guy they hired from a TEMP AGENCY

to the pack of indian industrial engineers they got for the LOW all staying on work visa cohabitating at a extended stay hotel up the road from me ....

working on multimillion dollar projects in the energy field .......every week we have workplace injury and every month we have a failed unit or project delayed

and all this can be traced back to these cheap azz non regulated punjabi mofos who for cheap pay...


WE ARE FUKKED

This.

As a software engineer I've grown to despise India and how they've dragged down wages.

 

[southern.girl]

Thats not how this works. Bankrupts and dissolves, dumbass nikkas

Boeing owns 43-45% of the GLOBAL commercial airline industry..

They also have defense contracts for delivering the F15 and fa18

There is a 43% that you will fly a boeing unless you are on of those incell nikkas who dont leave the basement.

Boeing aint going nowhere

STFU. Their overzealous capitalism is the source of plane crashes & lost lives. I don't care how they lose their business, but they should. The f0cking details of how they get there (loss of business share & business in general) is irrelevant to my point idiot.

Rote learning means they lack initiative.
Deep command control hierarchies means they lack assertiveness.
And there are other issues.

All those people died, because this janky company decided to be cheap with their software. SMH.
