Article is dead on.
These asshats like Coleman also totally ignore the growing facts that people,here have to spend a ton of time fixing code from overseas because it doesn’t work. To tge point many places have stopped using overseas folks because it was taking twice as long to get working code done.
So, they adjust the market with H-1b to favor them.
That is ABSOLUTELY TRUE.
Have worked in Santa Clara vally for 30 years and have seen nothing but Americans being laid off and foreign nationals being ushered in to take their place...typically by foreign managers, who spend all their time trying to get their countrymen in the door.
Coleman is a criminal.
“We can’t hire enough good people. They are just not available here. The salaries here are going through the roof, because everybody is competing to hire from everybody else,” he said.
Sounds like a Statement just Begging for a Congressional Hearing led by Jeff Sessions and Ted Cruz!!
Give them as many H1-Bs as they want, and tax the employer for each so that if they really need a foreigner, they will be glad to pay the premium over a cheaper American.
Did one of the presidential candidates call for a 500% increase in H1Bs?
My son, a computer engineer in San Jose, just got laid off yesterday—no notice :(
The H-1B Visa situation certainly won’t help him find a new job :/
This is the treason generation of businessmen and the political hacks that enable them.
The reason you can’t hire enough good people is because you refuse to look at Americans in America.
AGREED. There are very few people from India who are overqualified. When there are way too many American applicants who are “overqualified”, and thus not offered the job, the problem lies with the employer’s attitude, not the American worker.
Define a "thru the roof" salary in silicone valley.
Yes, the lies are coming home to roost in Silicon Valley and yes, I’m calling you destroyers of the American Dream in Silicon Valley nothing but a bunch of traitorous parasites raping and pillaging America at the expense of Americans in America.
