This is what I hated while working with them. Some of them had “master degrees” in engineering but couldn’t handle the most basic task.

Keep this in mind when states start importing doctors from abroad without requiring a US residency to practice.

Hell, these lunatic Democrats don’t even need to be Indian to pull some shite like this.

Tech will just offshore the whole job to India…..that was already cheaper than an H1B anyway.

Well, I've disagreed with some of what Trump has done, but the fact that American companies are allowed to import foreigners to take American jobs is kinda bs.

I think they need to demonstrate that they can't find qualified Americans for the position before they are allowed to.

It would probably lead to more offshoring though.

It's looking like this isn't a one time $100k fee. Lutnick says that the $100k fee is PER YEAR.

I had the exact same experience with a coworker at my last firm. “hi, NIH” messages on teams followed up by 10 minutes of silence. Word salad emails that didn’t mean anything. Strange assertive emails to clients. Was eye opening.

Without a doubt.

I have hired J-1s, and you have to claim that the local labor pool wasnt meeting the need. I'm sure its abused, its kind of honor code.
