H1Bs are fine with coming into the office and won’t put up a fight with any corporate policy….
That’s just market forces, then. I suggest domestic workers adapt or retrain in a new industry.
I suggest they unionize, demand seats on the board for their unions, and crush excessive C-level compensation. Moving on just moves the exploitation to a new kind of job.
Or they could unionize and lobby their government... That's how democratic processes work on civilized countries
Unions lobbying the current US government isn't going to happen. Nothing short of a general strike will make them listen.
Oh, yeah you’re absolutely right. I just kind of left the best option out because it is the topic of the OP. Thanks for mentioning it!
Yup every time I see H1B I replace it in my head with tech slave. They're paid, but the deck is so stacked against them they effectively cannot refuse anything. ANYTHING. A well informed H1B worker might score a chance at permanent residency for some of the abuse they suffer. But mostly it's just years of abuse with very strict rules to get their residency.
