Have friends workin at USAA and just hangin tell they can retire outta
there...

The foreign nationals are rampart within the IT Dpt... mostly from India...

A few years ago they laid off nearly the whole IT shop and filled the jobs
with Indians... still lotsa smoke about that one, and when the word went out
via the many email lists with military, they lost a lot of business, they
'said' they were gonna rehire a bunch of the IT guys back, but it never
happened...
