- Are H1B holders screwed with the new wage ruling? The newly passed H1B rules say that minimum wage level should be at-least 45th percentile*. It means slightly less than wage level 3. I have a base of 160k in Seattle. But its only wage level 1 in Seattle for my job code**. Does the new rule mean that I'm no longer eligible for extension? *-https

- vote Apparently we need to applaud WITCH!! Trash Indian tech support companies that exploits thousands of young Engineers for cheap labor and pay them poverty wages, while over working them apparently need to be applauded. If we applaud companies by those standards that makes Amazon a literal Heaven. Do you agree with this?
- New H1b wage levels don't make any sense. The Level 1 wage for Software Engineers in Seattle is $140K. Level 1 is for entry level roles, for someone with a Bachelor degree. I have never seen anyone with a Bachelor degree, at FAANGMULA getting a base of $140K, for an entry level SDE role. The Level 3 wage is $195K. This is for someone with a

- H1b lottery based on wage levels [Edit] This rule is delayed for this year. H1b lottery based on wage levels will be pretty bad for international students. No company hires university grads with $180k base. I guess most of the visas will be given to l4,l3. Many international students will just have to go back after their student

- new H1B requirements are bad for top tier American SWEs With the elimination of WITCH H1Bs, more H1Bs will go to SWEs in highly paid top tier firms (eg. FAANG), which would mean more supply/competition for these roles (potentially lowering wages). American SWEs in top tier firms should oppose this new H1B bill unless it comes with a corresponding reduct
