At least half of of the network engineers i work with would be gone if they got rid of the visas.

I do project management / Process optimization for a Largish financial institution.

No exaggeration, the company I work for has replaced 75% of the core IT staff with Contractors on Visas.
Another 10% are offshore contractors they had to keep on after their visa's were up. We employ HUNDREDS of them now. I"ve watched it happen over the last 15 years. It's crazy really how blatant it is, but it allowed them to lower costs and that's all upper management cared about.

All the development teams here are basically 1 american manager and a team of Indians developers. A few of them are legit geniuses and got sponsored and hired by the company. But I can dead serious count the ones I know with green cards on my hands.

I don't hate those dudes, but the system that's in place is a headache. It unfair competition wage wise, so we never hire americans anymore. it has built in high turnover rates, so we don't retain talent when we do get really good guys. Plus they run them into the ground.

The fact is that nikkas will have a higher chance of getting jobs without a billion racist poverty Indians in the USA. Trump is doing the right thing and is doing what the fukk Obama should have done.
You need to worry about Canada or whichever fukk ass country you're from

Indians ain't going anywhere..they are too plugged in

And only a moron would think this move means more jobs for negroes

Cacs ain't replacing Indians with negroes..not in a million years

Deport Mexicans, they will fill the jobs with legal Mexicans
Same shyt with Indians

Ain't nobody trying to make the IT industry black.. we gotta do that ourselves

Cacs don't have our best interests

By the way nikkas are taking 2 years to earn their A+ cert..we ain't no competition to Indians
Stop the madness

:heh:

Man these tech companies gonna be hurting real bad b/c Lets be honest a lot of Americans aren't even going into these fields in the first place :lolbron:

BUT this is a good thing for American citizens, although I'm sure an indian programmer in Mumbai can still work remotely for an American company.

Yes, my company outsourced our whole IT dept to India..........put like 50 people out of work......
exactly. the h1-b and j1 visas (for medical folks) just seem like a way for america to import more brain power into the country and drain poorer countries of their brain power thus keeping america ahead of its rivals. because if it's just about some indian coding, that can be done from anywhere.

Aren't you an Indian?

Yes. I'm also born here, came up in a less than ideal situation unique among most Indian-Americans and had to make a living the hard way like many other Americans. Just because I share the same ancestry with those people doesn't mean I can relate to them. Are they sticking their necks out for me? Nah, as a matter of fact they probably look down on Indians like me. So why am I going to go to bat for them?

I may defend Indians and India on a general macro level, but that's where it stops. At the end of the day I consider myself an individual, period. My circumstances are mine and mine alone.

There are a lot of jokes about how India is dirty, chaotic, etc; but India also has some of the best technical schools in the world, and some of the best medical facilities. People from Europe and, as you probably know, Africa, go there for a quality education where they can get the skills required to develop their own countries. Indians are perfectly capable of educating their own population and benefiting from those efforts. A lot of these H1-B Visa immigrants are just coming here to make a quick buck while having absolutely ZERO stake or care for their host country. I'm not a hypocrite, I firmly believe anybody doing that - Indian, Mexican, African or whoever else can kick on rocks.

No, they're getting hired. Suggesting that these people "take" jobs absolves the employers of their responsibility.

Employers OFFER them jobs, the prospects ACCEPT those jobs.


You talking semantics...THE FACT IS PEOPLE THAT ARE NOT CITIZENS HAVE JOBS IN AMERICA

Yes low tiered jobs that nobody else wants to work......oh the horror.......its not that serious breh. Selling oranges and mowing lawns ain't exactly lifting the Hispanic race out of poverty.....nor will it go a long way to help impoverished black people eat better.

read his post again, he's including legal permanent residents in that. he said people who are not citizens have jobs in america. that's the bannon line, how dare these legal residents have any kind of success. people who aren't citizens have jobs in the NBA and MLB too. the horror.
