“T-Mobile USA could have easily opened up this technology hub in the United States of America, and they could have ran it out of one of the two Frisco offices on Warren Parkway. On top of that, T-Mobile spent $81.5 million on salaries for H-one B employees in the United States in 2025, all salaries that could have went to Americans.”

It’s a shame. I live in the Legacy District of Plano not far from Frisco and it baffles me how many Indians are there working insignificant jobs and makes me question how they can get an H1B1 visa to work at Walmart, HEB, drive for Uber, etc. my company is moving me to Spring July 1st and I can’t wait to leave Collin County…an absolute 3rd world shithole that has been conceded to the immigrants.

Corporations are greedy, its expensive to live in America compared to places like India. So financially it makes more sense to do this.

Either make laws to not allow this, dont use T mobile, or let capitalism be capitalism.

I can assure you T mobile doesnt care what anyone thinks about this move as long as people keep spending money for their services.

T-mobile has realized tech innovation is at its finest in India. That’s why so many of our tech products are being imagined out there.

Deport T-Mobile and seize assets. Simple fix.

Many such cases.

Intuit (Turbo Tax, Quickbooks) did the same thing, and they dont even sell any products in India.

Chevron and BP are doing the same thing. Probably other big companies as well.

quote:

US energy major Chevron is making a significant investment in India with the establishment of its USD 1 billion Engineering and Innovation Excellence Centre (ENGINE) in Bengaluru. This marks the company’s largest investment outside the United States, underscoring India’s growing prominence as a hub for global energy innovation.

Announced at India Energy Week, Chevron’s India head, Akshay Sahni, emphasised that ENGINE aims to leverage India’s vast engineering and technology talent to support Chevron’s global operations. Initially disclosed last year through a LinkedIn post, the project has gained momentum with key leadership appointments and an aggressive hiring plan. The company aims to onboard 600 employees by the end of 2025, with future expansion anticipated.

CONGRESS



quote:

To permanently end work visas in the U.S. (like H-1B, L-1, or O-1 categories), it would take an act of the U.S. Congress to change the law.



I will say it again. CONGRESS

Going to take longer than a year to remove 30 years of illegals.


Would also be easier if democrats would let people do their jobs. And supposed conservatives are the ones constantly attacking deportations on this board.

H1B1 visa to work at Walmart, HEB

The H1B may work for Cognizant, Infosys, Wipro or TCS (IT body shops). Then non tech companies will hire them. The H-4 visa is for the spouses of H1Bs, which is probably what you're seeing.

They don't even have to spend on H1Bs with remote work they can leave their asses in India and hire them through a slave firm.
