It's inherent to the H1B visa system. The employers bring them over with a bump up in salary, but still way below US average levels. Most people coming here under those circumstances are interested in a green card, and that takes 5 years or more. If you lose your job you have to start the waiting period all over again, and you are in danger of being deported as well. So you suck it up, make that low salary, and take whatever they dish out, since you are basically beholden to your employer. And the 5 years it takes to get your green card is longer than avergage turnover for technical jobs, even at normal salary levels.
Whats not to like for US employers ? Received on Tue Dec 06 2005 - 16:57:37 CST
