Toys ‘R’ Us Forces U.S. College Grads To Train Their H-1B Foreign Replacements

Toys R Us is the latest in a string of U.S. companies that has been caught forcing their American employees to train foreign college-grads to take the Americans jobs, via a process known as knowledge transfer.
An expose by the New York Times revealed in detail how the renowned childrens toy-chain brought in eight workers from the global outsourcing company Tata Consultancy Services (TCS). The Indians shadowed employees, mainly in accounting, and produced intricate manuals for TCS workers in India to take over these jobs. By late June, the jobs had been transferred overseas and 67 employees had been laid off from Toys R Us, many of whom had reportedly been at the company for over a decade.

H-1b's must be good for America.
Otherwise Ted Cruz would not advocate to increase their numbers 300%+.

I am getting SO tired of hearing bull crap like this. We need to get rid of this program as it is clearly incapable of being used by employers correctly.

Oh I’d be training them alright, training them on how to destroy the company that is.
To: TigerClaws
But this will make everyone more competitive
The corporation will make scads of money enabling them to gratefully hire millions of Americans
We must trust mass immigration
We must trust Free Movemement of Labor
It is unfortunate that some will lose their jobs and their standard of living
These are the Sacrifices we Americans must make to appease the God of Fwee Twade and Open Borders

Whatever one thinks of Trump, this issue is number one and probably the only reason he's doing well and drawing more and more people's interest in his campaign.
The Republicrats have been flooding the country with cheap, abundant labor. That is one of many, but a big reason why wages remain flat or dropping

"However both Republican and Democratic legislators such as
2016 presidential candidate Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) are pushing for the passage of their I-Squared bill (Immigration Innovation) which would triple the number of H-1B visas in America, allowing these corporations cut even more labor costs in what many are referring to as corporate greed."
Well, well, well. Do the companies get kick backs from the government in this program in addition to hiring at a lower wage?

By late June, the jobs had been transferred overseas Then they aren't H1-B's.

well I won't spend my few dollars to stand in line all day at greedyland and I haven't spent a dime at overpriced Toys Ripyouofby Us since my kids were small, and they're in their mid thirties now.
As an aside, my BIL has worked for greedyland almost thirty years and I can assure you the extra money they are raking in is in no way shared with the people that work for them.

I’ve been involved with a number of companies who’ve outsourced job functions like accounting, computer programming, help desk/support to India. Within 5 years all of them brought the functions back in-house due to various complications. In the long run, the supposed short-term gain cost them big time.
