Indigenous engineers get $90K+ here. H-1Bs typically are hired at ~ $60K

Americans are overqualified for these jobs. (By $30K)...

Oh, and just as an aside, an American can't get a job for $50K.

It's the same sort of reasoning someone else used today:

Hmm, I probably wouldn’t hire an MBA to do desktop support. You might leave after a few months and I’d have to start my search all over again.

I've got a job for less than that with a BS degree. Then again, I live in a rural area so I guess you have to adjust for that.
