I heard from a few people that H1B extensions at Microsoft are getting delayed and some may even be getting denied. Apparently even premium processing cases are taking longer than expected. Not sure if this is connected to the recent PERM situation or something else. Anyone here experiencing this firsthand or hearing the same thing internally?

@2bn sure. let india tax every fu-kind add rev
Noticing Indian leaders in other industries are signing large Microsoft deals. Solidarity…Indian strong 💪
@2a5 So, let’s outlaw both H1B and offshoring.
@cn Wrong the positive of H1B is they're at least contributing positively by spending some on their money in the American economy.
Offshoring pushes the job + the money into another country... Very very little of that comes back into the U.S.A.
Offshoring Level 1/2 positions is already creating a shortage of lower level tech jobs in the U.S.A. When our kids can't find L1/L2 jobs, where will employers look? Oh yea India because that's where they already pushed all of the L1/L2 jobs so it's a natural progression.
@cn Microsoft will just become a shell company with executive office in the US, but all the workers will be in India, China, Latin America, etc.
And the executive office, let's be honest, are not exactly from America either
LMAO
@cn why bother working or competing.
@c5 that is fine. Better that the jobs are outsourced than visa holders brought in to compete with a decreasing number of tech jobs.
Offshoring on full scale! You asked for it and we delivered !!
The jig is up.
