Country quotas are bad. It’s not Indians that are the problem, it’s specifically the Indian body shops. No sense penalizing the good candidates who are doing things right.

American tech giants are the ones to blame for this problem. They are hiring massive amounts of contractors (“vendors”) through these companies so they don’t have to have FTEs on their balance sheet. They’ll go away on their own once the market stops supporting them.



This is a good point, but realistically, most of the body shops are based in India, and that's not likely to change.
