Mind blowing. I wish I had known the compression fine print at time of getting hired along with the promises of fair pay.

Employee 62 was a female manager who was laid off from Oracle. She worked in Product
Development. She received a very small raise while at Oracle. Sometimes pay was
discussed and they were told that there was no money in the budget for raises. Performance
reviews did not happen regularly. She was told to hire in India because three Indian workers
could be hired for the cost of one US worker. Similarly, visa holders were cheaper to hire
than U.S. workers. She was not called derogatory names at work, but previous supervisor
told her that it was unacceptable to miss work due to a sick child.

people picking on India for two main reasons:

  • over 70% of H1Bs are from India and are obviously gaming the system, thus reducing their reputation overall
  • extreme nepotism

@e5 Exactly. I don't know why people are picking on India. Have these people looked at the job postings that O has up? Seeing a lot for Philippines, Mexico, Romania, etc. Not looking to keep the jobs in the US at all, and no idea what hours these people are expected to work. They have positions they need to fill and don't want to spend the money, instead saving it to build that datacenter for OpenAI.

Oracle outsources to a dozen other countries besides india. Follow the money and you land right at shareholders, capitalistic principles and the core values of this country. If you are focused on india then you are missing the bigger picture.

after all, this is my money

Yes, yes, yes. It's your company to destroy how you see fit. With, of course, no concern for the large workforce that has facilitated the company's success.

Larry sez “Hot shot software engineers from North America cost 3-4 times or more than the ones from India (counting all benefits) we are replacing them like lightbulbs ; even if it affects some quality; after all, this is my money..”
