#7I'm sure many US-based tech companies can be blamed for preferring the cheaper option ... I would think our visa process plays no small part here, further the lax compliance on what "special skillset" means in the case of H-* visas.
The system allows it, why not take advantage of such.

#9This is the thing where when you want to sponsor a specific employee for an H1B you have to post notices pretending to look for American citizens instead.
Every FAANG is guilty of this. Every startup is guilty of this. There is no law less adhered to in the US.
Everyone posts the notice on the office fridge or the receptionist stand or runs some newspaper ad to cover the nominal letter of the law. It's completely pointless.
Just to add some context here.
