Sathish tries to dispel some myths built around H1B workers:
Linked by kuffir. Join Blogbharti facebook group.There has been a lot of opposition from media lately for all the H1B workers in this country. A lot of what they are reporting is simply not true. All those who are reporting wrong info about H1B workers should get back to reporting the real problem - Illegal immigration. Legal immigration is not an issue for this country, it actually helps this country.
But the H1B visa program is being actively misused by Indian companies. I have seen how they take H1B for their employees and never send them to US. Indian companies are using H1B to lure talent. I am happy that Senators are cracking down on the abuse. In fact, I have written to the two senators about how H1B is being misused by the Indian companies. I hope they crack down on the abusers and ensure that it goes to people who really need them.
krish,
why do i have this feeling that your opinion against the indian companies wouldn’t change even if they actually send their workers to the u.s., like you’d probably say, then, that indian companies are luring talent away from the country, or.. :)
