Real hiring criteria is 'are you Telugu?': Indian Redditor's take on H-1B goes viral
Times of India ^ | 10/10/2025 | World Desk

Posted on 10/10/2025 11:10:08 AM PDT by marcusmaximus

An Indian Redditor who claimed to be an ex-Amazon employee took to Reddit to share his rant against Indian managers in US workplaces. The post went viral with anti-H-1Bs reveling in the fact that Indians are exposing the toxicity they create in American companies. The Redditor said Indian managers do not hire Americans because they know they can't push them to work 24/7; and Americans won't hesitate to push back if they are made to work extra.

Citing the toxic behavior of the Indian managers for leaving Amazon, the person claimed that the real hiring criteria in Walmart is one question: 'Are you Telugu?' "Same with Gujaratis at Intel, where they prefer only hiring Gujaratis. My classmates from uni used to go to play cricket with intel employees to secure internships," the Rediitor posted.

"Obviously American will be pissed if they see this kind of favouritism they’re not stupid. New H1b rule will definitely reduce the number of these types of employees and managers. I'm happy at least everyone saw how fragile H1b situation is this weekend and it's not as glorious as it seems from outside," the Redditor wrote.

Yeah, I have noticed that as well. Here he seems to be making the case for Indians working here, which is why he has nothing to say himself on his new posting on this topic.

When I worked at an allergy, ear nose and throat clinic, we got a new administrator, who was from India. She ran the front office like a boot camp -— no unnecessary talking, no joking, visiting, or otherwise filling empty time gaps with pleasantries. We were located at the opposite end of the suite, and the allergists would visit and joke with us when we weren’t busy. She never dared try to reign us in, but I felt sorry for the staff up front who couldn’t even talk to the person next to them without being rebuked.

He wants unsuspecting freepers to post embarrassing garbage about India, Indians and H1-Bs.

I think China will be his next troll target.

They try to bring their caste system with them and it’s unpleasant.

Just for clarification{

Telugu is a Dravidian language native to the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, where it is also the official language. Spoken by about 96 million people.

The Gujarati people, or Gujaratis, are an Indo-Aryan ethnolinguistic group native to the Indian state of Gujarat. They primarily speak Gujarati, an Indo-Aryan language. Gujaratis have diaspora across India as well in a large number of countries around the world.

Could be, because he certainly gives no indication as to why he has chosen to post about Indian workers from India here in the U.S., all of a sudden & no longer posts about Ukraine.

Has he finally seen the light that stering Putin to invade Ukraine was not the smartest plan to have executed?

Based on my experience, once they infiltrate management, it becomes tribal in the workplace.

Regarding H1-Bs, here is a story (by an Indian) on a proposal titled “Reforming the H-1B Nonimmigrant Visa Classification Program”, officially published in the Federal Register in late September :

You can (and should) post comments and read posted comments on this proposal from U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services here :

Indians are most racist towards each other than non-Indians are to Indians.
