Is there any strategy behind this?? Are they enslaving them by money where few people make boat load of money and giving peanuts to the rest just enough so that he/she thinks they have made it. Think before you reply coz money is cheap. All you gotta do is buy more printers and issue a jumbo loans to them so they can buy a property. You loose your friends family your kids your future generation your neighbors your relatives everything at the end. Welcome to the good life! Catch 22
Why not? There are not enough engineering talent in the US.
Enslaving them with visa and green card rules
There is plenty of talent in US just do not like the flavor of the talent I guess or the price. The notion we are Enslaving by giving people a live able wage. That is an interesting philosophical discussion. May want to read the " Servile State", that is the idea that you relinquish freedom for security.
Hiring a foreign worker is more expensive, tedious and time consuming. So they are hired only for their talent. Otherwise no reason to hire them, and they don't come cheap. I am one of the foreign workers and I earn more than all of my colleagues in the team (they are Americans). And they also know it. Point being, talent is all that matters. The day they find someone better at the job than me, foreigner or American, they will hire that person and dump me.
But works out well for the company in the long run by trapping the worker with visa and greencard regulation
Trapping? I am free to leave the company any moment. No traps, no chains. I am not sure what exactly are you referring to here, mate.
US pays 1.2x the salary than my home country, while the workload is only 0.6x. Have you ever heard 996 culture ? Meaning working from 9am to 9pm 6days a week. I have more time for friends family kids relatives if I work in US.
I’m from a top school (think MIT Harvard) and from what I’ve seen the quality of American students is lacking. International students that make it to the US are (on average) smarter and more hard working. It not surprising to me that companies would want to hire top international talent in the US. Would you rather them go back to their home countries and contribute there or stay here and build our economy? And why does it matter if they’re international? They are paying taxes here and building up the US.
Think about it, if foreign students were dumber, why the fuck would the companies bring them here. Dont tell me its cheap labor, bcuz lots of top talents here won the international olymliad and all.
Agreed
My IIT boss only hire alumni. It’s nothing bad guys. IIT grads are smart and they works hard
Fuck IIT lol
It’s called globalization. You somehow want to be able to sell stuff anywhere in the world and make money. But when it comes to talent, you don’t want foreign talent. If people are incompetent they’d be fired. How would race matter if the team is underperforming or missing goals? They get kicked out. Being an American I am comfortable with getting the best talent out there. Some scum is unavoidable.
This 👌🏾
Cuz the managers making the hiring decisions are from said countries. Nepotism at its finest. Cool right?
Let me put it this way - worked in two companies, 90% of ppl were from the same country, same state in said country. When i referred candidates not fitting this none made it thru yet very incompetent ppl got hired. One even admitted to me - half the work is done if the ethnic background is in alignment with what he expected - then laughed it off.
Possible but engineering groups with sizes of 60+ ppl is pretty large. I also got verbal confirmation they'd be open to do this so im not surprised. Also, like i said, a lot of incompetent ppl were hired, really really in competent, and they werent diversity hires. Im sure others i didnt refer got denied as well but i actually overheard full interviews which other candidates did well on, only to have the interviewer completely lie about the candidates performance. Id say if a manager is from place X and has more than 50% of ppl from that same foreign place and has more than 6-7 ppl reporting to him/her, means some bs is going on. Ive also heard this from other colleagues in other groups/companies without me having to mention anything. Unfortunately its just a fact of life.
