Most of these Indian H1B scumbags make between 17% (bachelors) and 34% (certificate/ diploma/associates) less than median industry wage. Level 3 (Masters of some sort) makes industry median wage and Level 4s (PhDs) make above industry median wage are very rare, per the USCIS database.
Getting Dalit recruiter emails offering $20 to $25 an hour for 5 to 6 years experience with no benefits and a 3 to 6 month contract at Microsoft. Minimum wage in King County is $16.39/ hr.
I’ve noticed that the emails I get from India (where US financial sector jobs have moved) include on the senders address/info additional names and numbers for “1st escalation”, “2nd escalation” (as though the US company KNOWS you will be getting substandard help - and will have to move up the caste ladder to get your problem addressed). The physical addresses themselves are bizarre: “Gray building #2 past smoking garbage dump, Mumbai”
