I work in software QA with dozens of these people, both onshore and offshore. Their quality is uneven (as with any race’s) but generally a bit lower than I’d like. The problem is now, my company is hiring Indians as *management* in more and more IT departments, including mine. My department manager (boss’s boss) is Indian, as are three of our team managers. I don’t think we’ve hired a white person as a full-time employee in my area in two years. Our Thanksgiving potlucks are literally curry, naan, and vindaloo from our 80% Indian, 85% contract workforce.
I’ve told my daughter point-blank, do not go into information technology. You will never be able to get an entry-level job unless you are truly exceptional, if you are white, because there is a solid block of Indian and Pakistani visaholders working in the entry-level and low-end jobs. And note that this situation is not always great for them either...they are exploited, chained to one particular employer, forced to work insane hours, paid terribly compared to what they should be (law notwithstanding, they always have ways to get around it). It’s not good for them OR us.

And they only hire others of their kid. Like liberals do.
Until the SHTF and they need someone with experience.
I just checked out an entire module that was check-in absolutely full of crap- it looked like they just cut and pasted anything together and checked it in, so they could claim they worked on it. I had to scrap the entire thing ad start over... again.
