While the H1-B program needs a lot of reform this isn't it. This is an attempt to get a quick change by throwing out a lot of people waiting for green cards rather than addressing the true issue of a lot of those visas being for cheaper workers rather than rare talent. It's a good thing for America to bring in the brightest workers. It's not a good thing when American jobs are given to cheaper foreign workers. Disney is merely the tip of the iceberg, a case where the company goofed up and didn't put a secrecy clause in the agreement. I rather like bhickey's suggestion of basing it on salary. I also would like to see a change to contract law--allow someone to go before a judge and ask that a secrecy clause be struck as not in the public interest. This would only apply when the actions being protected appear to be basically illegal activity even if it might be within the letter of the law. (Being required to train foreign replacements certainly skirts the intent of the H1-B as it's obvious there are suitable Americans.)
