IT Story

 N-TV brought up this odd topic in business news this AM.

So, the Deutsche Bank had around 1,500 IT 'experts' who worked in St Petersburg/Moscow.  With the sanctions underway....they went and arranged a visa-deal.....offering jobs in Berlin to 1,500.  

At this point, several hundred have signed on and have left.

The odds that all will take the deal?  No one says much.  I could see some being worried about the idea of permanently leaving Russia.  

But this brings up the IT community in Russia....just in general.  Based on commentary....I would suggest that a quarter-million IT experts are reviewing options, and considering some drastic move by the end of 2022.  

Germany quietly benefiting from this conflict?  Well.....yeah.
