I’ve worked with comp-sci H-1Bs, nothing spectacular and certainly not the worst. There is, however, a cultural/language disparity where I noticed an unearned sense of eminence. US labor is not without its issues, but the context of the tasks & situations was much easier to discuss, dispute, & resolve. I never felt the H-1B overhead was worth it.

BTW, the US labor I referred to is racially diverse but nonetheless of the same American culture. So should one be accused of being an anti-H-1B racist, tell them to “F themselves in the face”... lol

We make it clear with companies we engage for support - ALL meetings with their staff must be with people that proficiently read, write and speak English.

I have ended probably 3-4 meetings over the years when we simply could not understand the staff member of the support organization. It’s unfortunate but time is money and the meeting was going poorly due to the underlying language challenges.
