Agreed. It seems like it’s mixing a lot of comments with ideas and being very selective.
I’d also say ‘fewer’ but it’s hard to know. I’m in automotive software and it’s hard to find good people and right now we’re not sponsoring H1B people, so options are even smaller.
That said, there’s other aspects to consider. Culture being one of them. I have issues with Indian culture. I’ve met excellent engineers and bad ones. I’ve met good people, along with the worst slimeballs I’ve ever met. Letting loads of them in too quickly is, generally, imho, a bad idea. While I myself am an immigrant from the UK (80’s, as a teenager), it took me many years to actually understand the USA. Individual rights come before the collective, not the opposite - the USA is the only country that gets this. Most coming here don’t.
Once a company gets a CEO that is Indian, suddenly much of the workforce becomes Indian...I do believe there’s some supremacy floating around that goes unsaid.
