Yeah companies have always been abusing H1B, but it seems like only recently is it so hard for CS grads to find jobs. I didn’t have much trouble in 2010 and it was easy to hop jobs for me the last 10 years.

Now, not so much.

It makes me so mad that there are CS grads who can’t find work at the same time as companies are exploiting the H1B process saying “there aren’t enough applicants”. When are these companies going to be held accountable?

What the alternative?

It’s bullshit for companies to lay people off and retain H1Bs. The government shouldn’t approve any new H1Bs for development positions until companies stop the layoffs and the amount of developers searching for work goes down significantly.

I’m guess you have a fully staffed infrastructure team team, so the reason that has yet to be explained is that they want to downsize that team.

We use cloud services because we have never had a fully staffed infrastructure team.

Even Bank of America doesn’t support MFA apps.
