If your company was willing to pay a US immigration cost to get somebody in, and can now shave 10%+ off salary to get the same awesome brains from another country AND get 24/7 effort on the problem... what's not to love?
capitalism means making profits
making profits means lowering costs

Businesses like to turn all the dials to increase their profits.
