I work with a lot of these H1-B visa "replacements" and find that for the most part, they are vastly sup-standard to the workers they replace, and are not worth the "savings" they are advertised to bring.
The decision being made to do this action is by "financial bean-counters" who buy the lie (or bribe) from the sales reps of these companies that supply the replacement workers, to the detriment of their own companies.
I suspect these decision makers jump ship soon after they throw their US employees over the side and finish putting the holes in the hull of their current employer.

But they stay long enough to collect their bonus for cost-cutting, I'm sure.
