Guaranteed this was some MBA who realized they could save money by going offshore. Every MBA goes through this phase. I'll save the company millions! Quality drops to zero, bugs go out MBA is promoted out, and the actual pms are left to figure out how the hell to fix this

If that's the case it's a particularly stupid MBA. Between the companies part of social security and healthcare, mandatory vacation days, virtually unlimited sick days, maternity leave, paternity leave, the ridiculous amount of public holidays in Bavaria, and stronger enforcement of overtime pay, the effective cost per working hour in Munich is not going to be much cheaper.
