Already losing faith in the H1B Visa Plan

They told us on video this was 100k per year for all the H1B Visa holders, or all 600K. Now its a 1 time fee of 100K for 3 years, its only for non us grads so like only 60K out of the 80K new H1B Visa's. Talk about a walk back, that's like only 1/10th of the original stated headcount. What a let down.


For those with a H-1B Visa status at mm

I hope our mm colleagues with a H1-B visa returns to the states before the EOD as"an executive order on Friday requiring US employers to pay a $100,000 application fee for the visa program. The order takes effect on September 21 at 12:01 a.m. ET."

Does this mean if you currently have one and it expires chances are you won't have employment because I doubt mm will pay that price for anyone plus income.

Massive self-layoff incoming

Our contracting firms use H1b to save 25%. This new fee destroys Nike’s contracting model. Leadership will probably try offshoring more but those individuals juggle 3 jobs concurrently and don’t do any real work.

Things have been falling apart the last few years and it’s only going to get worse. This is going to be such a dumpster fire.


New H1B Visa Fee $100k/

Finally someone I. Government is catching on to this back door theft of American jobs.

How many workers does Exxon have in the USA on H1B visas?

This is going to have an impact. Get ready Canada and other HC10 locations.


H1-B just got a lot more expensive

(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trump is expected to sign a proclamation as soon as Friday that would move to extensively overhaul the H-1B visa program, requiring a $100,000 fee for applications in a bid to curb overuse, according to a White House official familiar with the matter.


Changing Roles and Moving Schedules?

A mandatory shift bid, AI, moving people’s roles, changing up departments (Which can often be a sign of layoffs creeping up), and changing metrics? Some of this helps, but I feel as if these changes are being implemented to make a lot of people voluntarily leave to avoid layoffs. It smells of constructive dismissal/discharge in some form. Maybe I’m wrong. This job has had its pros and cons. I’m sorry to those of you who have to endure whatever Wayfair throws.


I want to leave Ford

What’s been your experience with the job search lately? I’ve been looking for months, and honestly, I’m open to creative ideas and stepping well outside my comfort zone. I won’t go into praising or bashing Ford. I’m just personally burned out after years here that led nowhere. On top of that, I’m flat-out bored with my job. Maybe it’s not the best timing for a change, but I need one badly.


The force out has begun

Writing up employees and managers left and right. Adding more and more responsibilities on all. Constant changes with no training or notice of the change. Constant emails of impending changes. Constant meetings, messages, sxs, 1 on 1. More and more coming everyday. And they are starting to drop like flies. SF is shaking the tree before the big reorganization.


Worried about what’s ahead

With the CEO stepping down, it’s hard not to feel uncertain about what’s next. Whoever takes over is likely to bring major changes. And we all know that frontline employees are usually the first to feel the impact of any reorganization or cuts. The economy’s slipping, the job market isn’t great, and many of us are already stretched thin, both financially and emotionally. A little stability would go a long way in easing the pressure we’ve all been feeling. But right now, it’s hard to see where that might come from.


Micron work culture and stability situation

Hi All,
I was impacted by Layoff recently and got offer from Micron Folsom (HBM) and another competing memory company (WD/SD) in Bay Area recently for mid engineer level role. I am looking for views on how the Micron work culture/yearly performance refresher talks is as I heard about the extremely competitive bell curve based performance review few years ago (is it still present?).
Also, how do you feel is the stability right now for atleast next 2-4 years as I have been recently impacted and wouldn’t want to go through same again, need some stability from personal life perspective.
Thank you!
