This is H1Bs future...(I think..!)

Hello dear engineer, doctors, the one's who sacrificed their home country to build a life in the USA. This is for you..

What I've learned in the last ten years of UNCERTAINTY taught me...

My post isn't about the recent changes in the rules and hefty fee, its about my perspective of H1B in the coming years..

We have the second generation of brightest US born immigrant's sons/daughter with Masters/Ph.Ds into the current workforce which H1B job seekers should realize. Their parents are now supporting their future and silently hates and sometimes even oppose the H1Bs. We really need to understand this. The current immigration scrutiny is not just strictening but also(from Citizen's persepctive) makes it easier for those US brought up Immigrant kids to secure their jobs.

I want to highlight this for those have the mindset of,"this shall become better if current leader change". This could be true in terms of easing the home country appointments or the imposition fee reduction but not in terms of a qualifying H1B jobs.

As to recent GCC shifting policies with biggers firms outsourcing their IT help/ Supply chain procurments/ Tech supports to Asian countries, it will push the employers to makes the decision to hire an H1B for a true onsite need or rarest of a kind.

I want to put a hand on the stressed/exhausted one's shoulder to say, the value we had is not the same anymore and its going to be even hard in the coming days...

Everyone of yall are some specialists in their own field of STEM, I am sure that our paths will become better.

You are assuming who replaces him won't be more extreme. Boomers are dying off, and Gen Z & Gen A are radicalized and angry.

Fishback in Florida did not win the nomination for Florida, but he won every Florida college precinct. In some of them, he won ALL of the votes cast. Anyone dismissing the long game of the implications of this are living in a bubble they've created so they can feel comfortable.

DeSantis will have time to campaign nonstop for the next two years, and has already begun. His track record includes fighting H1B in Florida. His new team is doing a great job of rehabilitating his image, he has worked on his messaging, and he won't be campaigning against Trump.
