We have close to 2,000 of them, and maybe 100-200 I would consider proficient in any type of technical role.

There was a massive push to hire as many developers as possible, so recruiting extended offers to everyone that applied. Senior engineers who have no degree or have ever worked at a tech company before.

I have no problem working with people who are capable of doing the work we need them to do.

Isn't that a problem with the recruiting dept ? and not generally with the Indians ? If the recruiters are not doing a good job, why blame your coworkers ?

Seems unlikely that America would import "no degree" Indians to work in tech

You don't understand big company politics. Number of reports determines whether a person is a manager, senior manager, or director and makes $120k, $170k, or $350k. The main metric of how good a manager is is simply butts in seat. Actually doing stuff doesn't matter.
