At BellTel they would put “techs” right out of school with1 year service with us telecom techs that took 15 years to learn and get where we were and tell us to train them...Most of us told the newbies”pay attention and pick it up the way I did cause i aint teaching you squat”

Disney is not the only company said to have done this.

Los Angeles DWP as well has been reported to have done this.

It seems illegal and not compliant with H1B policy.

I am wondering why class action lawyers are not involved.

I don’t understand all the ins and outs of these H1B visas.

But, have always wondered why they even exist.

My thinking is — naturally, Americans would be hired for jobs here in America. And if there are shortages in some categories, then we should be training our own people to fill these jobs, not importing immigrants. I don’t understand how it’s legal to import immigrants to do any job in America.

Then again, I admit I don’t understand all the ins and outs. But this story sounds to me very fishy. It sounds to me like this should be illegal, if it isn’t illegal, to terminate American workers and import people from other countries to do the same job. Clearly this is not a case of a shortage of skilled people, because they already had skilled Americans doing the jobs before.

Those who worship the god of amoral capitalism can explain why these job replacements are a good thing.

Unless your IT job involves implementing new technology and involves organizational change and communication to management, it can easily be taken over by offshore resources.

The outgoing should be offered to keep their jobs at lower salary, if they were to remain onsite, and probably were offered.

They continue the lie that Americans “do not have the skills” that the new people do. What they really mean is that they don’t have to pay the American worker the same as someone on a revocable visa.

Ted Cruz has something to say about this.

VIDEO: Sen. Cruz Ammendment to Immigration Legislation to Increase H-1B Visas

Not a typo. He did speak in favor of increasing the flow of "temporary" alien workers into our homeland. (And by increase, he means increase five-fold.)

The American worker is not important to the Democrat Party. The TAXES from the American worker are important to the Democrat Party.

Nothing says anti-American better than firing the American staff and replacing them with cheap foreign labor. Boycott!

but we need the rest of the story,

the unionistas keep making runs at Disney. Disney is protecting themselves and the shareholders.

I had to do that once at IBM. I won’t do it again. I’ll walk instead.

Sounds like a Plot Line in the new Jurassic Park Movie.
Maybe even Westworld.

What can go wrong?

Disneyland, considering what their corporate attitude has been since old Walt passed on, I'm amazed that along with all the other Lands they don't have a Greed Land. Then again I guess that would just be the entire Disney empire. My BIL has worked there over thirty years and the treatment of employees seems to run directly opposite to the profits.

Why not train them to do the function wrongly, see how long these non Americans last and how long the businesses can sustain using them. After all, what can they do to you, they fired you already.
