They can and they do. 5 for every 1 here. The best of them get brought in and once they get into a position that can decide hiring suddenly you can no longer get a hire inshore and all your headcount going forward has to come from an Indian contractor overseas.
I suspect that many, not all, but many that get themselves into the higher management chains are tied to these contractor companies...getting a kickback somewhere that can't be immediately seen on paper but it's so obvious on the face and behavior of it.
You crack the H1Bs and you bring jobs immediately back and may softly crack the outsourcing. You crack outsourcing and you bring back millions of jobs at all levels of IT.
You crack both and you bring back a golden age for the domestic IT worker at all levels and you suddenly revive the middle class.
The kicker? Everyone gets richer on this because people are still going to be buying and renting homes and products. The economy as a whole will barely, if at all, notice the vanishing of Indians. It's the employing companies that will cry.
But maybe once quality comes back maybe they will realize the benefit.
Indiana were attractive to employers because they were cheap while also coming with high tier credentials and long resumes.
But the credentials and experience seem to mean absolutely diddly shit in the face of the actual work.
In other words, companies have been scammed...but they are running a scam themselves against the shareholders so they just hope they can absorb the inefficiencies and issues for just one more quarter to report just a slightly higher profit by squeezing their margins and reporting "growth" because of headcount.
