Thread regarding Truist Bank layoffs

Visas

That'd be it. Stop the abuse. Finally. It's all over the news... "The U.S. Department of Labor announced that PERM labor certification processing has been suspended for eight technology and IT services companies: Capgemini, Infosys, Adobe, HCL Technologies, Microsoft, Tata Consultancy Services, Cognizant and Wipro. The suspension covers both new and pending applications."

@ee They didn't learn, they're still crowing about Project Stravos. They're trying to sell that they are so very clever by having Indians working during America's after hours.

Hopefully people will be unavailable during the next outage and let the Indians handle it.

I can't speak for everyone, but when I call the help desk and someone with an accent (that I can barely understand) answers, I hang up and try again. NOT for any other reason other than I don't have the time to keep asking someone to repeat themselves over and over again. I have work to do.

Every P1/P2 incident call it's the same thing... Senior management gets upset when they hear an Indian accent talking and demand we get an onshore person that "knows what they are doing" on the call. Racists when it comes to the outcome of their choice, but holding their nose when they see the savings in labor costs.

That's just a preview for what happens when GCC folks are leading the way.

Truist’s real headquarter is located in New Delhi. It has a branch in Charlotte.

@c6
132 renewal of existing and new. That is a small number. But Truist GCC will consolidate vendors offshore contractor numbers into the GCC. And contractors are significant proportion in all locations.
Anyone knows about the GCC timeline?

What does this mean for Truist contractors? Because they need to go asap.

Meh, they're still not going to pay Americans to do it, they cost too much for how mediocre they are.
