You are counteracting your point. Yes an employee on H1 will not negotiate for higher salaries as they can be laid off and sent packing . However these ads are for green cards. So by filling their green card, Apple, Google and others are setting their employees free. Once they get a green card, they can effectively negotiate for higher salaries without risk of losing jobs and being sent back.
If the intent was truly to fill positions with H1 then they should be laying off H1 employees every 3-5 years and rotate them with a fresh crop of H1 so that they never have to set their employees free.
- pandaman 7y agoGreen cards are not issued immediately after application, the process takes many years. During that process employee is even more vulnerable than a plain H1B w/o pending GC application. >If the intent was truly to fill positions with H1 then they should be laying off H1 employees every 3-5 years and rotate them with a fresh crop of H1 so that they never have to set their employees free. There are only 85000 H1B visas available per year (65K regular and additional 20K for people with masters degree from an American institution). That's not nearly enough to do what you propose.
