Really stressed about this h1b situation and layoffs. I bought a house last year, a Tesla model X Thought amazon is the safest given how rapidly they were hiring! Now I am drowning in debt and there is risk of losing my job! I will only get 60 days to find another! My wife doesn’t work and I have two kids one 3 months only. Shouldn’t have moved to amazon in the first place Intuit was so good! Should have stayed there with lower salary, atleast I would be free from anxiety and nightmares I am under stores org. How are my fellow h1b holders holding on? I wish uscis makes amends to this discriminatory immigration policy. Tc : L6 339k
Tesla model x on that salary? Ballsy
I know a dude with Model X on half the salary
What is the X monthly cost ? $1300 ?
You will get a year if you have an approved I-140
Yeah I have approved 140. How does that work ? Please share
Highly doubt this unless it’s recently published. Afaik there’s grey area clause that said that it’s possible but that requires a filing and criteria is super sketch
How much does your wife make?
She is not working
And how is your marriage going on with that dynamic?
Just pray you survive this round it will be worth it
This is just first of many more rounds to come. No more free money to companies like in the last 10 years of QE
Rough situation, hope it works out for you
Result of greed.. now no option other than to face it
How much is the debt? You are not laid off yet so just focus on the work. No company is immune to layoffs. Also USCIS is not your friend. Stop expecting they will create policies to favor immigration.
Come back to India
Stressed because want to avoid that
Why would you want to avoid that?
You fell for the trap. Bought house and Tesla through FOMO. Don't really feel sorry for you as you probably paid 20% above list and priced everyone else out of the market.
True I overpaid on house. Honestly it all makes sense now hindsight is 20/20.
@OP: you must have got the house at low rates. So, your EMI should be low

Do you really feel special in your Tesla?
There was no indication of layoffs everything seemed to be going well for amazon. And got greedy seeing the new high salary 😥
TBH 339k is not high for L6, are you not a SDE?
