The only reason your company thought 60-65k was reasonable is because of the access to those people without a normal American standard of living.


Paying an entry level .NET developer in Baton Rouge, LA north of 65K is insanity.

Yes at that point you promote the current employee and hire a new entry level.....that is the way of business.

What’s the market? Did you offer them a market price ? Or straight to lying for a visa?

Yeah, the more common strategy that people like you have is to make the current employee's life miserable until he wants to quit and then hire another one at entry level.

This is how corporations suppress wages.

It could be. My point is that your perception of what is a normal salary is distorted by the availability of low salary H1B options.
