Question for americans: If the H1B system could be completely overhauled in a way that only the best indians earning very good salaries would be allowed in, would you be for or against it? I mean very smart indians, the best of India ONLY.

No more cheap replacements ever, not even one mediocre indian would be allowed in, unless they married an american or something obviously. If they still "took our jobs" it'd be because they are literally smarter.

In Europe it kinda works like this, a minimum salary that is well over the average for locals is required.
>>
How about they stay and improve India?

How about NO MORE immigrants?

Look I actually like diversity. Its wonderful having all these vibrant and unique cultures around the world. So let's keep it that way and stop trying to blend them all into an amorphous blob of dullness. Stay away pajeet.
>>
>>56406908

Diversity is about having the vibrant and unique cultures from around the world in one city, not away from each other kek that's the opposite.

They could stay and improve india, but America actually has the resources to poach them instead.

If it was like I said then this wouldn't be about cheap labor anymore but about legit competition. If other competent people are forcefully left out of the market you can't really pretend you deserve your success.

>>56406750
the average salary of an H1B is around 80k.

>>56407815
exactly, that's the reason of this thread. they are mostly cheap trash. they shouldn't be allowed in unless they made 120-130k at least.

You don't fit in well in American or European culture. Demand better conditions in and improve your own country instead of contributing to its brain drain.

>>56408193
They are depriving Americans of jobs.

Companies prefer to employ people on H-1Bs because those workers know that if they get uppity they will get deported back to whatever shithole they came from. American workers can speak out or quit without fear of deportation.

H-1Bs are essentially indentured servants. There is no reason for the program to exist other than corporate greed. America has 320 million people and the best colleges in the world, do you really think it needs to import talent?

they are not. they're making more than our average not "skilled" workforce. Their salaries our below what a company would be able to get away with an American citizen. That's why we have them at all.

So Facebook is abusing the H1B system by paying theirs 137k a year?
>>
>>56408271
Exactly this. It's why raising the minimum H-1B salary will ameliorate but not fix the problem. The entire program, along with the visa 'diversity lottery', should be scrapped. It harms the vast majority of Americans.
>>
>>56408227
Or they can just find another company to sponsor them.
>>
>>56408275
You previously that half of American post grads are foreign, so that means that half of them are American.

>>56408282
Yes, if they would have to pay more for an American worker to do the same job.
>>
>>56408258
no... one of the main points against indians right now seems to be that they are cheap servants, like this guy said

>>56408227

if only indians making over 130k$ were brought, they'd be a very different demographic, the ones that emigrate would do so because they're actually wanted for their skills, so the problem would be over
>>
>>56408293
Americans harm themselves

Stop blaming other people for your inability to hold a decent job

>>56408239
that's because post grad is a waste of time unless it's medicine or a maters paid for by your company.

>So Facebook is abusing the H1B system by paying theirs 137k a year?
How many H1Bs are being paid that much?
How much would an American be paid for the same position?
>>
>>56408307
Facebook pays the average American worker around 120k. It's a fucking regulation for H1Bs to be either paid as much as an American in the equivalent role at the company or market rate in the area.
>>
>>56408305
There's no guarantee that they would be able to find such a company.

Would you really want to risk losing your job and having to go back to India, and even if you manage to find another company willing to sponsor you they won't really offer you much better than your current situation?

You are reframing the argument. Nobody cares if a small amount of Indians work in America for about the same salary as American workers. This is not the issue you're pretending it is. These two things are not the same.
>>
>>56406750
How about you FUCK OFF?
I'm from Europe, and I can't even THINK of doing any immigration business with the US or Canada without tons of Pajeets from India and Mohammeds from Pakistan cluttering up the system.

If you're emigrating so much, why the fuck have you asked for independence from the UK!?
>>
>>56408325
It is trivial to get around that regulation.

>>56408311
Yes, we should engage in a race to the bottom and earn the same as a worker in India in order to compete with them!

>>56408310
Not necessarily. A company would probably much rather hire an Indian on $137k than an American on $250k.
>>
>>56408364
And unless you are that hotshot making 250k a year there is no reason to complain about Pajeets.
>>
>>56408358
Think about it. Every year we give 50,000 green cards to foreigners for the purpose of increasing diversity. Not because we have a labor shortage, or a skills shortage. Madness.
>>
>>56408364
If a company was paying an Indian $137k there's a good chance they'd also pay the American $137k
>>
>>56408380
It affects tech workers at all levels above $60k. A company would rather hire an Indian on $80k than an American on $100k.
>>
>>56408384
Try telling that to the hiring managers at my last company who interviewed 10 people in person who couldn't do a FizzBuzz tier problem. This meme that the American workforce is "skilled" is getting out of hand.

>>56408405
The companies who pay Pajeets 80k don't pay Americans 100k. They pronbably pay them less.
>>
>>56408324
every h1b working for a decent american company is paid that, they're actually paid the same as americans, they get hired because they're actually the best applicant from the pool, deal with it bro

>>56408364
>Not necessarily. A company would probably much rather hire an Indian on $137k than an American on $250k.
that's an interesting argument. i honestly dont know, you may be right. facebook, google and the like are said to never spare costs when it comes to engineering so i think that's unlikely

>>56408347
in most of these arguments people cares about CHEAP LABOR and competition due to foreigners being CHEAPER and locals being therefore unable to compete. if only foreigners paid a lot of money are allowed in, the problem people complains about is over, whats so hard to understand mate


>>56408358
so you're in the same situation as indians but somehow think you're entitled to priority? haha suck it up
>>
>>56408325
This makes it so salaries can only decrease. If market rate decreases, I hire cheaper local workers. If there's a hiring freeze, I hire foreigners instead of improving offers and causing market rate to increase.
>>
>>56408398
You are frighteningly naïve.

>>56408410
If they want skilled tech workers then they should offer better conditions. Better salary, better benefits, better tools (i.e. don't force people to use Java), allow remote working, don't force them to provide out of hours support, ...

If you're not getting enough skilled applicants it's because the job isn't attractive enough.
>>
>>56408398

>assumptions
>>
>>56408433
Did you miss the scandal about wage fixing among SV tech companies? Of course these companies will scrimp on salaries wherever possible.

>>56408432
Why would they pay more for a foreign worker than they would for an American worker? Unless there is literally no American worker available who can do the job, for example if you're after Leonid Pavel, then that course of action makes no sense at all.

>>56408660
>actually skilled indians can make that happen or else they work somewhere else, they're skilled after all
Where else could they go? They can't simply waltz into any western country of their choosing. Their choice is often limited to being underpaid in America (but still vastly more than they would be paid in India, with the added benefit of being able to live in America), or being paid a pittance in India which is, let's face it, a shithole.

>india isnt that different, its a british colony too
India *was* a British colony, and even when it was it was not comparable to the British Isles, Canada, Australia, or New Zealand. All those countries are essentially Christian and European if not Anglo-Saxon. India is not.

I'm fine with immigrants as long as they have a job waiting here, a clean criminal record, no connections to terrorist organizations, and they can speak English well or are willing to take classes once here.

The CS/IT worker shortage is a myth perpetuated by industry lobbyists to increase immigration of cheaper workers so that more expensive Americans don't have to be hired. The H1B system is modern day indentured servitude since their ability to stay in this country is based on employment, the company has immense power of the immigrant. This will inevitably lead to abuse.

We have plenty of workers to fill the jobs companies claim they need H1Bs for; they just don't want to pay what an American deserves.

The Indians are NOT the ones at fault here, they're getting exploited too.

Microsoft pushed it hard back in the late 90s during their reign of dominance so that they could have control over even more of the market (through making their Windows exclusive JVM the fastest one available).

So you have no idea how consulting works in the industry then? You're usually an employee of the company you are consulting for as well, if nothing else, just to get access to their systems.

For example, if Google hires a consultant, that person would have a Google badge, account, etc. They generally just don't have the same on boarding process, have some company level restrictions, no benefits, etc.

It is surprising how many bugs there are in google's stuff, even in the most basic functions of their flagship product. Like the custom date range search locale bug, which has been there for years with plenty of bug reports yet there's no fix in sight.

>racism the thread

In-sourcing is the problem. Not the nationalities.

Every time I hear about a technology company justifying H1B's as "Americans aren't skilled enough" I roll my eyes and take a deep breath and think back to all the immigration issues that happen surrounding agriculture and construction.

It's about the companies bottom dollar and how they can get the same quality of labor for cheaper. It's not that Americans aren't skilled, it's that they won't tale a pay cut to do so.

The average H1B worker makes 13,000 dollars less then their American counterpart. Google has 9280 H1B's.

Those 9280 workers are saving google 120 million dollars a year.

Remember that the next tome google bitches about "low skilled" Americans.

I agree with you but at the same time the US has required India open its markets to american made products.

The US had recently brought to the WTO a complaint against Indian legislation of local content requirements for solar panels.

As a developing country India's manufacturing and electronics fabrication is in its infancy and needs some degree of insulation from already established competitors in the West and Japan, SK, &c.

The US can leverage its advantage in selling high-tech manufactured goods but India cannot use its competitive advantage in cheap labor. That's not only against the interest of free trade but there's an inherent unfairness in that trade dynamic.
>>
>>56411940
Indians are literally 2% of the population of the US.
If we're the ones causing problems for your culture and society then you need some degree of introspection.
If literally just existing in approximately the same geographic location and practicing the right of free association is enough to destroy your culture, suggests the problem is not with us but the culture you ascribe to, same as Islamic theocracies fearing ideological minorities.

Pajeet here. Getting my green card soon. I moved to the UK but it's just not competitive enough. All the Pajeets here are disillusioned into believing that there's artificial scarcity so they compete against each other. Most Pajeets in continental Europe are non-existent; the few that have jobs in countries like Netherlands and Germany basically have job security and are comfy enough not to reconsider. Let me just humble all Pajeets out there for the uninitiated; the majority, if not all Pajeets are economic migrants. They don't leave their countries for safety or security, but wealth. Just like, I, and many people in my family moved to the UK many years ago to seek better jobs. Now we're heading to the United States.

P.S. The state I'm from in India has toilets but one of the highest rates of recidivism in that hygiene department.

Why should I fuck off? White people sure are insecure. If all the stories I hear about PhDs from Stanford not being able to invert a binary tree are true, then it's no wonder actually talented people are taking advantage of the lack of skill among white people.
>>
>>56406750
That's the fallacy of H1B though.

Everybody claims "Oh, we need this because we can't find X engineers in our country" however they could easily find them if they paid what a real engineer costs and not what it costs to import a pajeet and pay him next to nothing.

There's never a reason to import anybody to the US for work, it's just they don't want to pay what an American would ask for so they make up this bullshit that "we can't fill the jobs" and fools like Obama fall for it.

Also, I'm Canadian, working remotely w/H1B out of SF. It was a rubber stamp process that even I was frightened by. (My own country does this shit, which is why I can't find any decent paying developer gig here). 8 years algorithm development for custom crypto boards, FPGA and embedded RTOS, they offer me $90k max here, in CAD.

SF pays me $140k USD, and that's peanuts in SF because there they would ask well over $200k for what I do.

tl;dr h1b should be nuked from orbit

Indeed this meme should die.

I'm surprised Obama and Clinton fall for this bullshit. "Oh, these corporations claim they can't hire any BSc grads for $40k/year.. we must flood the country with immigrants because clearly the reason is not enough grads and not that these scammers are low balling salaries the labor market refuses".

>There's never a reason to import anybody to the US for work
Not true. There are lots of small fields where the best candidate for a particular specialist position is non-American. Of course, in this case the candidate will often be European or east Asian. This is the reason H1B exists in the first place, though these days it's rarely used for that purpose.
>>
>>56413307
Go back to /pol/, this is /g/

I also have never trusted the US democrat party, I was around for the 90s crypto wars and saw what Clinton 1.0 did trying to backdoor and spy on everybody, arrest hackers, suppress exporting software ect.

Obama however doesn't seem stupid enough to fall for this meme of 'need more developers desperately' but I guess he really is a moron.
>>
>>56413261
There is the matter that a global hiring pool is going to make the world economy much more efficient as a whole. There will be local-scale growing pains but in general everyone benefits more that way.
Why would I hire a mech engineer who has some introduction to SoildWorks but has college loans up the wazoo and expects to afford relatively high standard of living to do CAD work when I can just contract a pajeet that has specializd in SolidWorks and nothing but SolidWorks but has done it all his life and is willing and able to work for pennies on the dollar.
Sucks for that engineer if all the real engineering positions are filled (the ones that require lots of creativity/innovation) but it's better for the company's shareholders and the competitiveness of that company and by extension the competitiveness of the host country's economy.

Don't know if you're a butthurt pajeet or just baiting but I have nothing against white people that want communities of only white people and that only marry with white people and govern themselves. I think that is everyone's right to choose, insofar as feasibly possible.
But I also think that freedom doesn't only come from rights such as free association and property rights; it is also enabled by economic and technological development. I don't think that US or India needs economic or cultural ties with any given country to continue to develop.
But I think it's just going to be unfortunate because everyone's going to lose out in the long run if we focus on building barriers with legislation to prevent economic cooperation and cultural exchange.

This is called globalism and they try it every couple of decades, then the public figures out they're getting screwed and overthrows that regime and all it's enablers.

Any global pool may also unionize, which would pretty much fuck your utopia and would fuck any startup attempt at "agile" development. Be careful what you wish for

God, the amount of hate at Indians and other races are staggering. Do you white people relaise that fact that North America as a continent was inhabited by Native Indians of the continent and they were dark too? You scum white people just came in, killed many of the Native Indians, colonized many places, raped many and finally you have a country that was built on those corpses.

You rel;aise how much people all over the world just dreadfully hate Americans? Mexicans and Canadians are widely respected everywhere despite the fact that comprise a part of North America.

Let me ask you a question. Why not invite these immigrants and see it as a chance of improving America a lot more? Sure, some come into the country, be lazy and do shit. Well, that's what deportation is for. You all are lazy fat cucks only knowing how to eat a burger and invent spork. If you think deep, you disgust the world. You destroy everything you contact with. But as a matter of fact all these haters outnumber the good ones. See where this goes? I bet you are gonna nuke yourselves.
>>
>>56420156
I'm Indian but you're a retard. if they're all lazy fucks then why do you even want to go there? I mean they must've done something right to make their country a place where people wants to be.

Its inevitable to get hate when you succeed, and there's people that will hate everything anyway because they're miserable, i say fuck the haters, who the hell cares.

About your last suggestion, do you think they can have an officer look at every case individually to decide if someone gets deported or not and that would end well? Objective rules need to be made, and they have to be made very carefully or else they'll be exploited, look what's happening with a visa that is supposed to be only for specially qualified workers that the country needs.
>>
White Americans are lazy? fuck you
I'm Indian and the only things that are lazy are Indians. Do you know why India is so fucked? Beyond corruption and votebank pandering?It's because People literally mug their textbooks, education is about scoring percentage and getting paper degrees rather than practical knowlege. People think MBA is a valuable asset and 90% have part-time degrees. Which is why Elon Musk says don't ever hire an MBA

Judging by the Marwadi and Gujarati communities, they actually build their children up to be engineers, so that they can get a greencard. The Indians who migrate to US are usually the worst types. Sundar Pichar has already shown his "indianess" (lack of thinking and confidence) with google's new approach of having 200 options for one purpose.

Amazon's India ad signoffs were "Indians love options"

The good talent is still in India and focusing on Alternate India (Homegrown has alot articles regarding this). The more posh city Indians are opting for Creative Education (Creative Direction, Design, Industrial Design, Architecture, storytelling) rather than textbook stuff and creative education is always a good thing. While the lower middleclass goes in for textbook stuff like Computer Engineering and MBA.

I'm pretty sure Sundar Pichar is a CS+MBA fag, I know the stereotype too well now

Human resources are still resources. What you need to do is be 10 times more efficient or 10 times cheaper, just a bit smarter than immigrants won't do it.

You could also protest against your army so they stop invading other countries. Just my opinion anyway.
