The average wage for an H-1B employee at Infosys in FY13 was $70,882 and for Tata it was $65,565. Compare this to the average wage of a Computer Systems Analyst in Rosemead, CA (where SCE is located), which is $91,990 (according to the U.S... — read more
Access to Pay stubs Denied
If you need recent pay stubs, get them now. Once a meeting was on the calendar for me and my ISP delivery, my access to get copies of my pay stub from the "my paystub" Circuit link were returned with an access denied error.
Can ISPs contact back?
I understand with VSP, you cannot contact back within 6 months. The ISP paperwork has no such clause. What is the rule for ISP contracting again through a vendor? Anyone know for certain?
Intel W2
A quick Intel W2 question... Are we going to have access to electronic W2 forms once we depart?
FYI, H1b's are not paid any lesser than their counterparts. The labor laws prohibit the pay to be regulated based on visa status.

Wind River Systems
Are they affected by the cuts as well? What's the damage over there?
Exempt employees?

I am tired of this H1b racist sh--.
You know what. I really now do hope Trump becomes the president and deports/cancels all H1b. Send all immigrants back home. It is only then you would understand the value immigrants bring here in the US. What were they thinking right? America, the... — read more
Disappointed in Intel.

Sorry to Say this but INTEL is run by complete idiots
As a former qcommer I can say with 100% certainty that hiring Murthy is the stupidest decision a board/CEO can do. This fatass f---ed qcom over to the point where he was fired as an exec. Which never happens at the Q. Look it up from old news. That... — read more

I guess Monday to Thursday is for individual contributers, managers escort them out. Friday is for managers, HR escort them out. Then HR been escorted out by contract security.
Once upon a time Intel was a great company run by great leaders who innovated and invested in great technologies
Today, Intel is a cube farm of PowerPoint rangers run by managers who measure their success by how much money they waste. On top of that equation for disaster, over the last decade, the company allowed a plethora of strangulating processes to govern... — read more
How do they do it? Call? Conference with HR?
How does the actual act of communicating that you've been laid off happen? Do they call you in a conference room? If yes, who is there? What do they tell you? How long does it take? Thank you?
