IMO, H1Bs should be given out via action style based on salary where the highest bidders (companies that need to fill the positions) get them. That's the only simple way to make sure they are not trying to replace higher cost US workers with lower cost H1B workers who are beholden to their employers every whim over threat of being kicked out.
- thatfrenchguy 7y agoBut how do you fix the fact that large consulting companies could be paying more than say, a startup ?
- tomschlick 7y agoYou don't. If startups want H1B workers they compete on the same level as everyone else. Special treatment is what creates loopholes and leads us down our current path.
- camelNotation 7y agoNo. Loopholes. The system we have now is nothing short of slavery in some instances.
- goatinaboat 7y agoThe only reason large “consulting” companies do it is to undercut wages. So there is no risk of that happening in an auction system.
