There are a lot of half-truths here.
Are there some specific skills that are dominated in IT by foreign nationals? Yes.
Are some companies paying them less? Yes, some companies do pay them lower SALARIES on average due to the cost of sponsorship.
Do some companies pay them standard rates, plus sponsorship? Yes
Would some IT companies be short of talent if H1Bs were sent home? Most definitely.
Prepare to be downvoted into oblivion. Truth about the IT job sector is unwelcome here.

Yeah, it's just what I do for a living now. LOL
Oddly enough, I haven't had a day off in over three weeks? Why? Because I'm responsible for staffing several roles on the west coast where 90% of the current candidate pool that I am seeking require sponsorship. My company will sponsor employees, but they want us to literally kill ourselves trying to find American workers first, which I'm fine with.
I've collected a ton of data the past year that supports specific skill sets where 90+% of the pool that actually has it is visa dependent. It is a fact.
Personally, I don't care what this board thinks. LOL
