@admin @briansullivan people are talking about H1Bs from cognizant / wipro / tata like the entire program is like that. That’s 4 in 10 of H1B visas.
That’s not the default in the Bay Area and other tech hubs, where regular people getting visas are the default.
Recent changes to the visa class are aimed at making it so that these onshoring companies can’t exploit people like this. There’s a new rule about them coming into effect on Jan 17.
Wanting to restrict a program to shut down onshoring doesn’t change the fact that these types of companies will simply offshore instead.
