))) Yeah that's bull. I'm not saving any costs with a Visa sponsored employee.
It often isnt about saving money, it is about having fragile immigrant workers on a leash that you can control with the constant threat of layoff--->deportation

and also the carrot of actual sponsorship. two paths to motivation.
and some will get made into full-timers -- I've seen it -- but it just centralizes control
Reality is, H1B hiring is just as impacted as normal hiring in the US.
You cant have offshore workers away from family, alone in a foreign country, with an RTO mandate, and glued to a desk in SF, constantly worried about deportation. This is about control, power, and abuse.
I think parent means over the long term. The dynamic they're describing has been in place a long time.
