So many layoffs in tech, so many folks looking for work. It’s a bad predicament for H1Bs of course, but the visa conditions were always temporary. Should the government be stepping in more here to incentivize corporations to hire citizens above visa-holders?
No, the government should be letting the market do its thing If there are qualified H1B applications who can pass interviews and get jobs, there's no reason why companies shouldn't hire them
temporary visa. so no. people conveniently forget and think h1b is some perm thing and treat it like it is. It is not. No different than contingent workers that get let go quite easily.
Except if citizens can’t be fed or housed there will be large scale rioting
In any other country it is and always will be citizens first. We shouldn’t have to be different.
Kick out all the fraud consultancy guys and that would sort the situation. Deport those cringe folks who create ruckus in movie theaters.
Talent first
Doesn’t sound very American 😆
I don’t understand why this is even a question. Citizens need to come first.
Most h1b can return home for medical treatment etc at cheaper price but US citizens are stuck if they lose health insurance, Cobra is a joke!
I am Indian and I agree it should always be citizens first.
Are you an Indian with GC? 🤣 By the way, I am on H1B and still agree with citizens first..
H1B only 😅
Oh this loser again

Do people underestimate E6 role at meta?
Foreign citizens can always relocate home, and oftentimes their cost of living is much cheaper. We US citizens are stuck here so we don’t have that luxury. Plus US healthcare means that we are especially vulnerable in case of a medical emergency.
US citizen doesn't mean one is stuck. US citizens have more freedom than anyone else and they can move to any location which has lower COL.
Workday there is oversupply of candidates so any claim that there aren’t any qualified candidates would be fraudulent. Ergo, no visas. Deal with it
