Kriti Agrawal was chasing the American Dream. She and her husband came to California from India three years ago with their young son. They landed good jobs in the Bay Area, she as a senior manager for a pharmaceutical company, he as a product manager in a financial-technology startup.

What part of the economy in India is reserved for ME, I would like to know..?
What part of their economy features the barring of Indian people from employement, with those positions instead being handed over to Americans.
...???
Google is run by a Leftist Indian/East Asian
This family’s grievance is no comparison with the sovereignty of any country
Bingo! There aren’t Americans who can do that job and who wouldn’t want that job? So why the hell are we bringing in a foreigner to take that job? No see it all the time at the big bank I do projects for.
At the end of the day, a country is supposed to act for the good of its citizens - not so that some large corporations can make somewhat higher margins the good of the actual citizens be damned.
No they don’t. And the companies in the USA that hire them deliberately post jobs greatly inflating the requirements so that they can hire an Indian who is nowhere near the job requirements so they can pay them substantially below what they would need to pay an American.
I’ve only been witnessing this for 23 YEARS!
At my company now, we have an American citizen who would be perfect as a business analyst, but they won’t hire her because they would need to pay her 20K more cause she is an American.
It is nothing but a cheap labor program for India to line corporation pockets. Has been that way since the beginning.
Do your homework.
Someone send these people the memo:
It’s now America first. Not India or Ustinkistan first! America first!
Have a nice trip!
An Indian buddy of mine was worried that he’d get sent back to India.
Although his comment was, “I’m not going back to that hell-hole.”
I think it is very important for the casual reader to know that, in silicon valley you can roll a bowling ball through a company and won’t hit a domestically grown citizen. This country is being rolled. And I almost have to laugh, we are paying for this to happen. There is no sense of community, respect for the host cadaver. Save yourselves. There are 13 of us out here if you need us.
This country is starting to smell way too much like curry.
“It is nothing but a cheap labor program for India to line corporation pockets. Has been that way since the beginning.”
I spent 25 years in Silicon Valley in senior Procurement positions, and what you say is the absolute truth. They are not filling positions for which there are no qualified US citizens. As you point out, this is just a massive attempt at saving labor costs. And it’s abetted by the number of senior people in these companies who are Indians. Whenever there is an attempt to curtail the H-1B Visa “program,” out come the crying towels about how they will be decimated because they won’t be able to find acceptable Americans to take their jobs. The Silicon Valley is perhaps the biggest “sweat shop” in the world. We had to “teach” the Asian clean room workers how to use the toilet, because all of them were simply pissing on the sets! That’s just how “talented” some of these H-1B visa holders are.
Not only that. Indians, once in a position to, only hire other Indians. Then they angle to push out the white guy who hired them.
They suck in general and are lousy colleagues. Usually lazy and conniving. They also squirt water bottles up their ass and don’t wash their hands.
Watched the Google Propagandist’s Election Funeral Wake Video.
If I recall correctly, one of the Women Execs lamented that they have 10,000 H1B Employees and they were worried about the Policies of the Trump Administrations.
My only question, does that mean that 10,000 Americans were denied Employment at Google because they could pay these H1B’s a lot less money?
There are PLENTY of mid-level managers with 20+ years of experience available to start immediately.
At 56 years old, I can’t come close to getting a job beyond entry level and even that is difficult. I am too old, and with too much expertise and experience. You can see it in their faces when you walk into the interview....The look of “you’re older than I thought”. And it’s over before it begins.
The last one I went on Wednesday, I could see it immediately. I said to them, I can tell from the looks on your faces that I am older then you were expecting and I have no chance at this, so there is no reason to waste your time or mine and I left. They were sort of stunned by it, but I have gotten good at reading faces in the last 3 years and am not going to waste any more time tilting at windmills.
They bought a US home when they arrived and have been paying mortgages and buying stuff.
Anyway, they applied to Canada, who accepted them. They are moving to Canada.
Many of these H-1Bs that come over immediately get sponsored by their employer for a Green Card. While the wait is long for an Indian to receive a Green Card (can be 20+ years) they never have to return to India until their application is actioned.
#26. Is USTINKISTAN ONE OF OBAMA’S 57 STATES? Just askin’.
Yah. Boo friggin hoo.
If my spouse has to leave, then I will leave with them. That is the way it works in the rest of the REAL world. Wear a jock-strap why don’t ya.
You are right. They have applied to Canada and get accepted just like that. They will sell their San Jose house and make maybe $60000. These useless pukes are headed North.
@@@ The part about them moving to Canada was only in the last paragraph.
