They were talking about Abbot Laboratories on talk radio this afternoon. Abbot was located in Chicago, but one plant was in Waukegan, IL. My aunt's neighbor lady's husband had a good job there, may be retired by now.

I don't know this source but it sources back to the Chicago Tribune:

Abbott Laboratories fires 180 IT workers, replaces them with H-1B, L-1 visa workers from Wipro

Like Disney and many before them, let Americans go and make them train H1B workers for their jobs. Fire them and give them severance pay. They were saying they have to sign a non-disclosure to get their severance, can't talk publicly about it.

It sucks.

H-1B ping. Let me know if you're not on the list and want to be added (or are and want to be removed).

“...They were saying they have to sign a non-disclosure to get their severance, can’t talk publicly about it. “

They should have signed up here and talked about it.
