Providing they are of equal skill, that's true. The article suggests it's not because of cost, that just leads me to ask why they would do it.

I don't know the salaries of Yahoo US vs Yahoo India, but please explain how cutting employees in any country isn't a way of reducing costs.

Presumably cutting down 2000 jobs in India would achieve the same cost saving as cuting ~500 jobs in US/EU.
