The H1B are not hired only due to the smaller salaries. Even at good salaries, hiring managers will always hire only Indians. Companies that offer good salaries end up hiring only Indians.
First one or two Indian H1Bs are hired.
Then those create a “gang” and begin to help and support each other, pushing the best of them up to become manager.
At the same time, the lay offs will hit almost only non-Indians, and the Indian employees will veto as much as they can hiring of non-Indians.
Then that manager pulls up the others, and at the same time hire only other Indians.
Slowly the whole company more and more “Indian”.
In our area, about 50-60% of the hiring managers are Indians, the jobs in those teams are completely inaccessible to whites, blacks, latinos, other kinds of Asians. I know Americans who could not find jobs in software engineering for years, and I live in a very densely populated area. It is terrible, people are being pushed completely out of the job market, and many go bankrupt
It is the Indian hiring manager who pretend that they can find no Americans, so that they can push their agendas. And do not believe a word they are saying, the Americans are always much better professionals than the Indians. They hire only Indians based only on culture and skin color.
