Americans know working in Cisco is not as great, it was a decade or two back. Only first generation migrants work at Cisco in majority. Cisco is another Nortel or Lucent story, bound to happen in another 3 years time.

200 years ago there were no cars, trains or airplanes. Life was really miserable that time. We all are very lucky that we have all kind of comforts at our fingertip. Please be thankful for that you id--ts & be happy.

In the strategic plan of 2006-2011 by Ms. Elaine L. Chao, DOL, pp.34-35, there is this surprising "Performance Goal 2H":

".... Foreign workers may be legally hired on a temporary or permanent basis when no American workers are available, able, willing and qualified, provided their employers file applications with the Department to adequately document the need.These conditions do not apply to foreign workers admitted on E-3 and H-1B1 visas. An E-3 or H-1B1 worker may be hired even when a qualified U.S. worker wants the job, and a U.S. worker can be displaced from the job in favor of the foreign worker. These conditions do not apply to foreign workers admitted onH-1B visas, except with respect to job opportunities with H-1B dependent employers. H-1B non dependent employers are not subject to the conditions, and their H-1B workers may be hired even when a qualified U.S. worker wants the job, and a U.S. worker can be displaced from the job in favor of the foreign worker. Additionally, the importation of the foreign worker will not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of U.S. workers. ".......

Request to Labor Department & USCIS : Deeply scrutinize every H1B application new one or extension from Cisco.Please inquire if any american workers are laid off to mobilize the applications. In such cases, would request to immediately reject the application. Cisco is a H1B fraud factory.

Those who are discriminated, please group together & file a class act law suite on Cisco. Current CEO F--- Robbins is a most unethical CEO with a very low morale. He & HR dept is doing layoffs every week in a limited fashion so that no declaration is needed for the Labor Department. That is a fraud.
