A research and consulting firm known as Forrester Research argues that jobs been lost in the IT sector in the United States due to software outsourcing are actually low paying IT jobs such as software programming or computer support specialists or computer operators. Higher paying jobs which include system analysts, network analysts and research analysts are still dominating the market. It is estimated that jobs in this sector are growing at a steady rate of 4 to 5% every year. These types of jobs require excellent domain knowledge and idea about the internal working of IT systems and business process. In software outsourcing these qualities are difficult to come by.
