My full angle is just that outsourcing of IT for a utility company seems, at best, two steps removed from anything of relevance.
PG&E outsourced something like 70 jobs from their IT department. They laid off under 2% of their workforce.
You have engage in all kinds of "this is a symptom of" third-degree effects stuff. But if you want to just say "they have bad management" why talk about outsourcing of an IT team instead of....their actual core business?
You know who else outsources? Apple & Google. (Apple spends $100 million a year on Indian outsourced IT, for instance) According to the OP's thesis we should expect Apple & Google to shutdown soon.
No one believes that because, really, none of us believe the OP's thesis that outsourcing a tiny fraction of your workforce is a sign of anything material.
