I have worked with a ton of H1b’s on my 25 years is semi design.
They are not brilliant, they are cheap and vindictive when proven wrong.
The “father” of H1b was a Sr Marketing Eng working for Intel on the original Pentium.
Even to this day, he calls himself “Father of the Pentium” even though he never worked on the design side.
To protect his job and stock options, he covered up the floating point flaw and lied to the CEO.
After he left several other companies, he landed back in India and started an outsourcing company.
Last I heard he is hiding from India gov on corruption charges.
Absolutely true. Many foreigners come with a very different third world background and can often be arrogant, corrupt, unethical, vindictive when proven wrong, exhibit difficulty admitting mistakes or failure and host of other interesting personality traits.
H1B indentured servitude jobs are like a high tech version of marine boot camp for beating these traits out of people and socializing them into US culture.
