> by definition are the absolute best of the best. I think that's probably true - the people who can claw their way through the H1B process are probably among the best India has to offer.

The fact that they work 12-15 hours a day, 7 days a week, in crowded, noisy open offices without ever complaining since they're under constant fear of being fired at a moment's notice and being unable to find new work, coupled with the fact that they're capable software engineers, is why management loves them.
