US software behemoth Microsoft Corp. said Thursday it would soon open an office in Canada, lamenting tough immigration rules in the United States that make it difficult to hire foreign staff.

What an offensive, disgusting comment.

I'll be rethinking purchasing anything that says Microsoft on it.

Post #86..I understand MS’s frustration. Other high tech companies follow suit. No new technology in the pipelines, might be said of some suppliers in telecoms. You snooze, you lose!

Immigration rules so mentioned mean the ease of a pre-job approved individual (one with skills needed) able to enter the US within a number/ quota allowed.

Seems service related jobs are more important to our government than scientists, engineers, etc. If our schools are not putting out what is needed to make a difference in the marketplace, then you have to go where the talent is.
It is not about the salary paid as you will see in earlier posts.

It is about Made in America, not being Made in America because of lack of aforementioned described necessary talent.
