Do you have examples of these people who are saving money using H1B?


about 12 years ago I worked at a very large non-tech company that had outsourced to contractors to work on some code. They had a room in the basement for about 20 kids on H1B visas that were clearly right out of college. This was in a major city that had plenty of jr developers around, they just would expect more money.

I forget the contractors company name but they came up on HN at the time for being abusive towards their employees who risked deportation if they stood up for themselves. If I find specific examples I'll add them later, but you can probably just search hn for h1b.


I'm sure it's ok to give out specifics of something that happened 12 years ago, what makes you think this sort of stuff is still happening?
