I thought H1-B were suppose to be paid at market rate?
BTW, it takes about 3 months to transfer a H1-B so if the foreign workers do
not like their jobs then they have no recourse but work until it is
transferred. Or not work until it is transferred. They don't have it easy
either.
IMHO, it seems that the only winners are the companies who hire them.

A thought that occurred to me is.....how do all the H-1Bs get experience
when supposedly the U.S. is so much more technically advanced than most
other countries?
Maybe U.S. corporations do not require H-1Bs to have experience because they
work for so much less.
As I said, just a thought.
