agree, in all the hirings (all at big Fortune 100 companies) I have personally being involved in, there were no difference in wage scale for H1B's. So, can't say it (paying H1B's less than others on the same job band) doesn't happen, but it's also not correct to assume H1B's always gets paid less.

Inida is producing hordes of software technicians in its colleges and technical schools. Not so much of a horde in the other specialities such as medicine and civil engineering. Probably so because teaching software has alomost a zero startup cost, and at the time thirty years ago when they began in earnest software was predicted to be a booming market.

So differentials in other specialities less. Supply and demand. India's supply of software people outstrips demand.
