At any level above 100k, the 15k extra per year for h1b workers the admin promised isn’t a meaningful barrier to h1b abuse, so you’ll have to compete with the entire planet and most of those foreign workers will come from terrible third world scammer filled hellholes that nobody would want to have to return to if their h1b gig gets canceled. Meaning your competing with quasi-slave labor. If you go for lower paying jobs you will be treated better and have much better results without all that h1b soft slavery culture and exploitation, but alas you’ll never be able to live like a prop13’d boomer homeowner on such a salary unless you leave this failed state and move somewhere with enough political diversity to ensure a functional government. You can’t surf in Denver so you’ll have to make a hard choice or pick up a new hobby like snowboarding.
