Why wouldn’t anyone question the employers? I’m on H1B and at the moment they want them to replace me at the client, with someone from a random consulting agency who is quoting way lower than my rate.

It’s not just for H1Bs. Many customers are looking for cost savings and reducing team size and/or looking for the cheapest consultants they can find. It’s a cycle.

They end up getting exactly what they paid for, it stinks, there’s tech debt, they need large teams and transformation experts all over again. Easy to get discouraged, but they’ll be back. Until then, skill up, rest and look for the next assignment. Customers/corps are fickle.

What did you expect?

tell that to MAGA

The employers are getting kickbacks from Infosys and TCS.

This is the very obvious result of this whole misguided thing

The real winners of this will be the same companies that currently make use of H1B, but they’ll develop capabilities in India for 50% less than the H1B price

Nobody is going to hire Americans for 30% more

The US government almost never goes after employers, including those who hire illegals. It's much easier to screw over individuals than corporations.
