So I wonder how many of the 1,850 MS employees are being replaced by H1B's? How many of Intel's 350?
Can't speak for Intel, but in the case of Microsoft, I do know that a large number of those doing Testing and Quality Assurance for their products have been outsourced overseas.
These foreigners come to the USA on H-1B visas, gain the knowledge, and then can do the work back home at salaries lower than the USA ( not to mention less generous benefits ) but still better than the average package they get compared to the others back home.
Not sure how a President Trump is going to put a stop to that. How do you prevent Indians or Filipinos from doing the work in India and the Philippines?
