Stop Offshoring

Our last release was late and contained more bugs than any release I've seen at the company because the QA team in the Philippines was incompetent. Our process, once agile, is now more like a big bureaucracy where code is thrown over the Pacific to the Philippines QA team when the developers are done. The result is that we spend lots of time explaining what the new features are, the QA team there takes too long to QA the code, and they miss some very major bugs. Isn't offshoring wonderful? NOT!!
