While I'm definitely for preventing companies from taking advantage of the system and foreign workers by underpaying them, there seems to be many obvious and clear negatives to this (some are highlighted from others)
- Restriction of qualifying degrees
- Contraction of months for contractors
- Retroactively forcing salary increases
- ... not explicitly stated, _more headache for doing H1B visas in the first place_
The H1B process is already heavily complicated and difficult and I've seen many strong candidates be denied because either the company they were applying to didn't find it worthwhile. Two personal friends had to leave the country after they had lived and worked here and found employment in other countries simply because it was such a headache.
It's also important to remember these are not the only changes that have taken place to H1B visas in this administration, and that it's already become more difficult.
