Everyone who got laid off in my team was an H1B and I’ve also seen many other people who got affected who were in the same situation… TC: 350k
See many names in the layoff channel that don't seem international.
H1b more likely to be less experienced employee because they haven’t been around long enough for citizenship? Correlation not causation?
Except Indians. Priority date for India is still 2011
Nice living under a rock
Couple of them axed from my girl's team. One on H1and the other is American citizen.
Hope your gal is safe
Bruh… your team probably has more H1Bs
Amazon is always abusing their visa slaves anyway so wouldn’t be surprised. When they’re ready to hire again they’ll bless the next round of idiots to do the needful
Repeat after me ... I am not a visa slave, I chose to move to the US knowing the rules and can leave at any time. That said, in this economy the number of days that H1Bs have to find a new job should be increased from 60 to 120.
@glinda you are way off the topic. Coinbase is talking about h1b holders joining Amazon even after knowing that Amazon has mandatory PIP. H1bs joining Amazon are either not able to find any better employer or doesn't know PIP quota until that happens with them.
85% of Amazon Tech workers are h1b. Do you want them to make it 99%?!
Source please
What a shit comment . Don’t talk without proof please .
Our team layoffs seem to have majorly impacted virtual employees - none on H1B, all great performers
What’s virtual employees?
Probably remote employees
At the very least U.S. citizens should be able to bounce back quickly? Or at least I hope so. I know it's a super crappy situation for everyone and hope all affected visa holders find new jobs soon!
The market is still very rough
Agreed. This market sucks. For everyone. I didn't mean to imply anyone has it easier than anyone else. Sorry.
Imagine being on L1
Return to India ??

Women, help me understand why this is inspirational
In recessions, H1Bs are preferred over US citizens. Not every Indian is an H1B. Indian-Americans exist fyi.
