Cisco especially is absolutely full of H1Bs.

As someone that has worked for them a decade ago, some of their division are >90% Indian. Those are all good engineers and not dunking on them at all but it should be unacceptable to bring over competing workers on a visa while also laying off so many people.

> This type of thing should come along with a reduction of allowed H-1bs.

H-1Bs also lose jobs in these layoffs, so there is an implicit reduction.

This. Once Indians get in, they hire other Indians only. It is a disgrace. They are here in Sweden too studying for masters, terrible. They should be barred from EU honestly... sadly we just did a trade agreement...

I’d prefer a forced resignation of the CEO and board with no severance.

Unlikely to happen when H1B program benefit corporate and they run super PACs

Any policies to help the people are labeled as "socialist" nowadays

I think H1Bs are pretty much dead with the 100k fee.
