How far is this from slavery? Seriously.
Wiggin, if you consider what they would have been paid in India, it’s probably not as bad as it sounds.
It was an all expenses paid trip for work purposes, and they were going to be paid what was considered a decent wage by Indian standards. It was a job. They wanted to work.
It shocks us because of our wage levels, but from an Indian employee vantage point, it may not have been a big deal at all.
I also wonder if the business entity that contracted the employees in India, gave any bonuses out of it’s fees. Employees could have gotten some sort of a participation perk from that entity as well. We won’t hear that in this effort to trash the California business.
