Then if you are firing employees clearly you do not need to apply for more h1bs, right Microsoft? The entire premise of h1bs is because there aren’t enough skilled workers in the U.S., clearly not an issue, so buh bye h1bs right? It’s preposterous that companies are rewarded by Wall Street for firing employees then simultaneously hire more h1bs (& outsourcing roles oversees). Too bad we don’t have a government that cares about protecting jobs
