Just offering constructive criticism here. These portfolios and home pages look like crap - I would never hire any of you. We do not care who you are and what you do. What can you do for me.

"Of course they want to bring in Indians and Artificial Intelligence. Why would they want to pay a US citizen $100,000 a year or whatever the commensurate salary is for your job."


Looks like HN just pulled this post?


I still see it on page 2 of "new". It's tough to get h1b article upvotes on hn, ime.


Ah ok, seeing it now - thanks!


This is exactly what I did, proactively. I figured, better I just bite the bullet on my own terms. Saved up money for a year, and made the jump.


Reddit post pulled despite a a very healthy debate over a growing issue:

With all the debate over H1Bs, Offshoring is orders of magnitude more damaging.

Looks like all the sites like unreddit went away, sigh


Many of these these companies are US only. If many continue doing this, if this trend continues - it's pretty obvious where this goes.


Everyone's fretting over H1Bs displacing US jobs. H1Bs are not required when they're displacing you via offshoring.


The common pattern is that the off-shoring company will deploy workers on site for a year to do knowledge transfer and documentation of existing processes so that they can be moved off shore.

Usually (but not always) these workers come into the US on a H-1B visa.


I have not seen this in my career. Its usually PE or cost cutting causes US roles to be split into mult off shore roles because the pay per engineer is less outside the US. Like everything else the talent is a bell curve.


Wow! Didn't now that, thanks for sharing. They've exploited this well, even after tons analysis - I'm still stumbling upon new things.


Many are fretting over H1Bs displacing US jobs. Who needs them when theyre already displacing you via outsourcing.
