Let’s face it, US’s immigration system is antiquated shit. H1B is lottery based due to which lot of employees from body shop companies end up getting visa though they make peanuts, while even FANG engineers don’t get it. Green card allocation process is even worse, it’s just an old school FIFO scheduler without priority (and with country cap). And there’s this chain migration bullcrap that ends up bringing highly unskilled population to this country who end up driving uber, working at a restaurant. Those are the people who steal Americans’ jobs in reality (along with indian bodyshop workers). Look at the immigration system of Canada, Australia and New Zealand. When will we learn from them? Compared to them we seem to be illiterate in terms of immigration policy.
This is by design, they know exactly what they want and have designed the system to serve their own country.
You can contact your local senator and voice your concern if you’re a citizen. Otherwise, leave the US and go to countries with a relatively better immigration system. 🤷🏻♂️
Good point. The only factor to consider when moving somewhere is the quality of the immigration system. There could be any number of reasons why an individual chooses to move to a particular country, why should that exclude them from critiquing the immigration system?
Even in Canada and GB it's a problem with too much migration, people are not integrating properly and you get these isolated neighborhoods.
Job creation argument has not been supported by evidence. That's just a propaganda, mostly by south Asia folks.
Why do you assume that optimising for diversity is bad ? We need unskilled labour as well for the jobs Americans don't want to do..
We already have diversity based immigration. OP is mentioning about cap/FIFO with regards to EB (Employment Based Migration) which is an extremely small chunk of overall immigration.
If you don't like the system stay back
You technically have no freedom of speech, so shut up. You ignorant fuck.
Only morons work in Salesforce, it’s trash. Go get a real job before spitting bullshit
How is the U.S. immigration system medieval? The Indian outsourcing and desi consulting companies fucked this up and continue to do so. Fix that, before you start complaining about the system. We jugaad the shit out of things and blame the system for not working. We fucked this up, plain and simple.
That’s what I am saying. The system is so freaking old that even Indians have been able to abuse it.
You know, “we” doesn’t always mean collective. It can also mean he is referring to just himself and his people. Need to brush up on those English and reading comprehension skills?
Immigrating to medieval racist country is counterintuitive. Why are you b!tching about it? They do not give a f@@k about foreigners and put walls around its territory.
US government is antiquated in many systems and there isn’t any reason for them to care.
I don’t agree with you. Lottery is the only reason why so many Indians from body shop companies are here. Do you really think there’s no difference between someone working at shitty companies like Salesforce vs FANG. The salary and talent difference is huge. Also EB1 is bullshit as well, PhD folks and international managers get it easily . So it’s not extraordinary. Get your fact straight before writing an essay full of shit.
What? You think we need to make room for more Facebook visas? Look dude you've got some serious superiority complex shit going on. You're not that special, little flower. Facebook is a top tech company because they pay well but America doesn't NEED Facebook to have more engineers dufus. It's a pretty damn meaningless product. For as much as you're ripping on Salesforce in this thread, it's easy to argue that they are more "essential" than you based on the product they develop. I really hope this thread was started because you're pissed you didn't get a visa, because we want people of value, not overly entitled assholes like you.
Most US policy is medieval
Oh you think kids should have unrestricted access to alcohol?
Kids should be allowed to buy alcohol from vending machines, duh 🙄
