I think there are two cures for this issue: 1. Expose the pay disparity at Oracle and other companies so candidates know ahead of time what they are getting themselves into. 2. Make it easier for any H1B employee to get a job at a different company if they have the ability and desire. I am on this visa called the E-3 which is almost identical to the H1B except: - No annual cap - No 6 year limit - Only available to Australian nationals I have never had any trouble finding a tech job despite being an asian foreigner. My pay has varied from 60k - 180k and the companies i've worked at have varied from multi-nationals to 3 person startup. High Minimum salaries would disadvantage startups and companies in smaller cities. Here's how to fix the h1B - No hard annual cap - No 6 year limit - For any company that hires more than 10 H1B hires, the average salary of h1b employees should not be lower than the average salary of non-h1b employees. - Additionally, for large companies (say > 10,000 employees) the average salary of h1b employees of a certain level of seniority should not be lower than the average salary of non-h1b employees of that same seniority. This will give companies more certainty that a potential H1B hire would be approved, providing H1B candidates more job mobility. It would also prevent larger companies from abusing this system.
