How immune are existing H1bs these days? If you keep your existing job then I guess you are good. Are you seeing any pressure these days?

Depends on the midterms. If republicans don’t lose a lot of seats, then you can expect this admin to go even harder at immigration topics

H1b was never “immune”.

How is it cheap? Does slalom pays lower wages to H1B compared to citizens ?

Anyway, there is a bill already out there to pause H1B for 3 years and implement radical changes, by a staunch Trump ally. Which will only get stronger if midterms are not too bad. That’s not “immune” to me

Do you really think that these bills will pass?

OP, nobody is immune. Always need to be on your toes. To your point on staying in your job, well job hugging isn't a solution. It is compromising your career and potential earnings maximization over time, especially if you aspire for the upper middle class elite school district Indian in America life.

So, the fact that several firms are not open to taking H1B transfers is a huge downside as it keeps you trapped in your current role. That is not ideal.
