A scandal involving the H-1B visa program has emerged, centering on Walmart's hiring practices. Reports indicate that a Walmart executive allegedly accepted substantial bribes to replace American technology workers with Indian H-1B visa holders sourced from certain visa vendors. Critics argue that the H-1B program is being exploited by foreign firms to introduce low-cost and potentially underqualified foreign labor into key American industries. Former Walmart employees have highlighted that approximately 95% of the company's engineering offices were staffed by Indian workers, with concerns raised about poor engineering practices that negatively affected millions of customers and shareholder value. Calls for a moratorium on immigration and a comprehensive audit of the H-1B visa program have been made, emphasizing the need for clear answers on how immigration benefits American citizens before policy decisions are made.
A moratorium shutdown on immigration is the only reasonable solution. "How can immigration benefit American citizens?" This question must be answered with clarity Once we have that answer, then we can make data driven driven decisions on policy and implementation https://t.co/zCLFmr91o2
One of the most salient features of Indian tech executives at Walmart was how voraciously they tried to expand team sizes. Makes a whole lot more sense. Meanwhile these teams harmed millions of customers and destroyed shareholder value. When's the shareholder lawsuit coming? https://t.co/4EnU8cbnQK
