- ocdtrekkie 6y agoThat is definitely true, and unfortunately tech companies have been abusing H-1B laws flagrantly in order to hire trapped workers they can underpay. (https://www.cnet.com/news/facebook-accused-by-trump-administration-of-favoring-h-1b-workers/ https://www.cnet.com/news/facebook-accused-by-trump-administ... is particularly blatant.) That being said, without the employees who could leave, but choose not to, Google would not survive. Hiring underpaid immigrants can only get you so far.
- SamoyedFurFluff 6y agoIf the employees who could leave organize for the benefit of employees who can’t, isn’t that precisely unionizing? That’s my jab here. I don’t really know/care about how great certain employees have it, I care that several other employees are systematically abused and there’s no check on their power.
