Will be interested to see if this is followed by Cisco applying for 14,000 H1B visas.
- winteriscoming 10y agoI think a large chunk of that 14k employees being laid off would be on H1B visas. Can't imagine that many local employees all at Cisco.
- kbart 10y agoCisco has offices all over the world, I doubt hey are particularly interested in H1B visas.
- zhte415 10y agoI understood the largest H1B users were companies such as Infosys, TCS and Wipro, companies whose core business developed as offshore/outsourcing locations.
- manarth 10y agoI'm curious where these layoffs will take place: if it's evenly spread worldwide, or focused on a particular location/country. Although a third of their workforce work out of San Jose, so it'd be surprising if that wasn't hit.
