The history of outsourcing would be a great book, starting with the H1B visa, their conversion to permanent status as green card holders, becoming managers themselves, and then the manager preferring to outsource additional staffing due to affinity, thus completing the cycle. Repeat.
- dutchCourage 4y agoAre you saying legal immigration caused outsourcing? That's a bold claim. Anecdotally, I was in a large company with offices in India. None of the management was Indian.
- jibe 4y agoI don't know the answer, but it seems like the parent might have it backwards. A handful of outsourcing companies control a massively disproportionate number of H-1Bs, and lobby heavily on expanding H-1B policy. They can place the US based H-1Bs to complement their local teams back in India.
