And I thought it was official Walmart policy!
They are not naming names, are they?
There was a $100M run on Intel back around 2004 that sounds very similar.
They were supposed to be working on a software project and they ended up in an H1b hiring scam.
Intel quietly covered it up so it never went public.

If I had that kind of money coming in every day, I’d definitely think about buying a new truck.
another giant ‘too big to fail’ corporation enjoying the fruits of being headquartered in America that, simultaneously, has no qualms about undermining the livelihoods of its citizens.
TATA == Indians
***By anonymous IT manager***
It would be nice if we had more identifying information about the VP who was fired. I guess the contributing IT manager still feels at risk.
It appears Walmart tagged the contractor’s corruption on this one. It just goes to show how crooks work overtime to corrupt well intended systems to work in their favor.
These guys sound like they used to work for the City of Chicago where they learned of this grift.
No, but you can be sure they’re not typical American names. The consultancy firm whose employees perpetrated this fraud — Tata Consultants — is an Indian company.
Daily? If I had that monthly I would have our aging deck rebuilt. Plus a few more repairs around my house.
Many years ago, when my son was a senior in HS, he was invited to a party at a wealthy classmate’s home. He came home gushing, and at the same time complaining about our very middle class cookie cutter home. He told me the dad had a huge garage with 6 cars in it. One was a Maserati.
I told him that those people had some problems which he knew nothing about. I assured him their life wasn’t perfect. He scoffed.
Three years later, he found out the girl’s father was arrested for dealing high end drugs, and sent to prison. The cars were all confiscated by the police. The huge house was put up for sale, and the family was in tatters.
Nobody is putting the name of this VP in any news article. Without facts, we don’t know that any of this actually happened. Walmart has stated publicly they only got rid of a handful of people.

There is a saying: Behind every big fortune there is a big crime.
That’s not always true, of course. But it’s true more often than most folks realize.
Yes, this corruption has existed for years in both some Indian culture and some American culture. Republican Big Jim Thompson brought it to IL in the 1970s. Pre Big Jim it was nickel and dime stuff. With Pin Stripe Patronage it became very profitable.
Currently we can see the corrupt culture in government contractors like DeLoitte.
