For non-Indian desis, the 100k H1B fee might be a huge win. A lot easier to snag one now assuming most of the Indian firms won't be able to afford the fees. Restores parity and removes the blatant fraud all while improving the diversity of the pool.

Lol, Indian IT companies Will have very minimal impact. Eg you are TCS which have revenue of 30 billion and they file 3000 brand new h1s then they will have to pay 300 millions in fees. That's 1% of their annual revenue. If they raise their client fees by 2-5% they can cover this amount very easily.

In fact non indian companies are going to loose big time as they can't afford to pay 100k. This fee is best thing happened to Indian companies and will kill all the competition for large Indian companies. They have the deep pockets to absorb shocks from these fees. Small companies or non indian companies with 10-500 people will be impacted big time.

Also 100k is not whole lotta amount. H1 is given 3 yrs and total 6 yrs .so 100k cost spread over 6 yrs is 15.5k per yr. And companies will get tax incentives for costs. So not a really huge impact if company can afford.

I applied for a job at Visa and was contacted the same day. A few days later I had a 30-minute screening interview with the hiring manager. I knew I was very early in the process since the job had only been posted for a few days. It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back, even after reaching out to the recruiter. Have I been ghosted or is there still hope? Does anyone at Visa have insights? Looks like there are a ton of jobs posted so maybe they are just backed up?

Less of a question, more of a request... stop asking your junior BIPOC strats to work on BLM briefs because they are the only voice of color on your team. In a time where we need support grappling with our very REAL realities and how it impacts how we show up in the agency, the LAST thing we need is an “opportunity” to express our “unique POV” on a diversity brief (that we won’t even get to speak to none the less). Imagine having to chanbel your trauma into a deck to sell in an idea to clients?
