Try doing a search on Infosys at Breitbart. “...roughly 93%-94% of Infosys’s United States workforce is of the South Asian national origin (primarily Indian).” He was absolutely right, they need kicked out of this country.

I've had to deal with InfoSys and other India based "consulting" firms for over twenty years now. I do not recall ever seeing a single Caucasian consultant from any of them.

I've been with the same employer in Financial Services for the last ten years now. I can emphatically say that every single "consltant" we've gotten from Infosys, Patni and Tata consulting have been from India and almost without exception below the age of 30.

For the most part, their english is terrible, they don't hesitate to talk in their native language around others who are NOT from India and typically don't really know jack schitt. They're ambitious and willing to "figure it out" however the reality is they ARE displacing American workers and they ARE working for much less. I know this for fact, I've see the contracts and the hourly rates for these kids.

Infosys is used by a crap load of large businesses for IT BY EMPLOYERS. I live in fla. Many many companies use infosys for IT INCLUDING two companies i worked for. I would imagine disney has this company high on their list from which to hire.

At least ONE company that is based in India that has built their business in USA with H1B visas, IMMEDIATELY stopped or slowed down when Trump first announced the travel ban. They are now hiring more US citizens.

It’s way past time most of you free traitors get a clue. The same way the Japanese destroyed eight of the top ten industries in our country during the late 70’s-80’s. Ohio was a main target for this invasive takeover. Sell to each of their established bulkheads and marginalize their competitors,while buying up steel mills and anything else they could acquire. There are several articles at Breitbart regarding discrimination and settlement with the government over the same from the company I referenced. Everything is not a win morons. Not directed at you personally.

Thank you, I shot an elbow to the ribs of one of these who thought I was a lower caste years ago. I’m a veteran, I don’t vacate my side of the sidewall for anyone. I hope some of you get my drift. I most certainly don’t walk in the grass for anyone. I was willing to compromise my employment over this. Nowadays, I might do it more secretively, knowing political correctness rules.

Infosys is a known, historical abuser. This action was to counter the fact that they have been a major employer bringing in mostly and abusing H1B visa workers. Remember Disney firing all of it's IT?

This is, first and foremost, a major development for Infosys, which has been using the H-1B visa over the past decade to dispatch many of its computer programmers and engineers from India to the US to work on projects for American clients. In doing so, it has courted controversy especially in instances such as a project with Southern California Edison a few years ago, when Infosys engineers were shipped in to replace in-house techies. When Disney workers were forced to train replacements from Indian firm Cognizant or risk losing their severance, it snowballed into a PR disaster for both Disney and Indian IT (although lawsuits filed by ex-Disney workers were dismissed in court).

I know Infosys is one of the main abusers. We have used their people. Specifically because it cuts cost. It is highly frustrating because it is hit or miss on quality and communication is a nightmare. I can't post all the stories I could tell.

It has to end.
