U.S. tech firms — Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, and Apple — were the top 10 employers of H-1B recipients in 2024.
- Amazon workers bagged the highest number of H-1B visas every year between 2020 and 2024.
- U.S. companies have grown exponentially and need more IT talent.
- Indian IT firms have scaled back H-1B filings amid increased scrutiny.
its surreal that we’re asked to be sympathetic towards the people exploiting immigrants and not, yknow, the immigrants themselves
“H-1B crackdown”? They wanted more H-1B people because it’s essentially slave labor, especially now that deportations are ramped up.
If it weren’t for H-1B, Musk would have been left with no staff for Twitter.
This is some weird doublespeak because make no mistake, Trump and Musk are only going to try to increase H-1B labor.
Now they’ll just hire more offshore instead.
He won’t. Musk needs them
Didn’t they say they wanted the opposite of an H1—B crackdown? I’m pretty sure they already said they want more H1-Bs
Fuck knows what these morons want these days other than sowing chaos and stealing even more control and wealth away from the working class
I hope it does hurt them.
Fine they can open offices elsewhere, but that’s expense and time and complication. They need to hurt for bending the knee because that’s the only way they learn to fucking stop.
