Isn't this just amalgamating their IT and shuffling jobs around? The jobs may be new to Michigan but how many jobs were lost in other states as a result?

My understanding is that Hewlett Packard (formerly EDS) was the vendor of choice for IT work at GM. They are now insourcing the IT departments.

So what are those EDS people doing now that they aren't doing GM work? Steal from your right hand to give to your left?

Net job gain of 500 if its true, 0 if history is an accurate indicator.
