Read #17. This is not free or open or fair business practice. A friend of mine works for such a company in Silicon Valley, he's Korean, and a legal citizen and he is planning on leaving because the abuse the company shells out on workers, but these guys on visas can't leave. So they work 80 hour work weeks for 30K, not because the market dictates the cost of labor but because they are used as indentured servants, legalized slaves. From what he said, most of these guys are all but burnt out and don't have any life or see their families but have no choice...it's called white collar sweat shops. Welcome to the new reality.

I'm sure supply and demand will cure this practice. When the word gets around in India that you'll make 30K and work like a slave, the supply for this company and others like it will dry out.
