Can we talk about H1B

so, why is there so much H1B at Dell, or even in other countries, when there are a ton of US based workers that have been laid off. I thought the purpose of H1B is to use folks from other countries when there aren't enough qualified US people to do the same job. I think in this current economy, we have moved beyond that. We have plenty of qualified US workers to do the jobs being done by H1B workers here in the US. I feel H1B is being abused and not used for its intended purpose. Companies are using it for cheap labor. I'm willing to be that there are plenty of laid off US workers that would be do the same job for the price they're paying the H1B people. Seems like we need to make a shift in this now changing landscape.


Jobs are even scarcer than I thought

I've learned the hard way that just because jobs are listed online doesn’t mean the company is actually hiring. Some postings feel more like window dressing than real opportunities. It wastes my time and achieves absolutely nothing. It's infuriating, if you want the truth.


Question

Are laid-off folks offered a chance to land another role within Oracle in a set time frame? When I was laid off from my previous company last year, I had 60 days to apply for internal openings (spoiler: I didn’t get anything). I’m wondering if Oracle has a similar process or not.


Should I apply for a job?

Hey all, I’m a geo looking for my second role and thinking about whether it’s worth applying to Permian Resources if something comes up. I’ve seen a lot of harsh feedback - poor culture, little support, high turnover, and I’m honestly hesitant. Jobs are scarce though, so I’m wondering is it really that bad, or are there any redeeming qualities? Would appreciate any honest insights.


Exxon test

Well it finally happened! Someone called the anonymous hotline and reported the cheating that was going on with the test to get hired in Carlsbad. I really feel like anyone hired in the last year should have to retake the test without someone helping them and be fired if they can’t pass it. It’s pretty unfair that people missed out on a job opportunity to someone that cheated on the test.


Why are there suddenly job postings on LinkedIn for jobs that were eliminated last month?

I just had a former CDW coworker let me know that the jobs of a few people who were let go in July are now posted on LinkedIn. These were longer-term coworkers who were making a clear and critical impact for CDW who were let go--all of them in their late 40s/early 50s.

And now CDW tries to rehire for those jobs?

I see a lawsuit in CDW's future.
