I don't think you read what I wrote. H1-Bs are not sent to the US by their foreign employer generally (there is a different visa category for that). Also why would you think. H1-Bs are not on a path to immigration? For many people the path to US citizenship based on employment is H1 to Green card to citizenship

It was my mistaken understanding, that another poster cleared up. I thought that because H1-B VISAs tethered one to their employer, then your situation was understood to be impermanent since if you lost your job and didn't quickly find another then you would have to leave the country. This seems onerous compared to a green card.
