Thread regarding Seagate Technology Inc. layoffs

Make sure H1Bs are first to go in the next lay off. Or take legal action.

Trump will help us against STX.

Not sure what the reference is to “slave labor” earning “half the pay.”

H1B workers, by law, must be paid a “prevailing salary” determined by the government.

It many cases it is often more than what US workers doing the same job are making. In some ways, this deters companies from hiring foreign citizens, but often times it is not possible to find the skill set among US workers. Seagate has salary levels based upon the job, so it’s a misconception that our foreign national colleagues are working for a pittance.

Looks like H1bs is the new whipping boy. Earlier we had EDS and SSD as layoff targets

Trump is actually in favor of more H1B's and giving them a path to citizenship. He wants the people coming in to be highly skilled. It's the unwashed poor he wants to keep out.

You wish my friend. The low cost slave labor would be the last to let go and entitled, overpaid, and unproductive ones such as yourself would be the first on the list. Well if I was making it anyway. H1B do twice the work at half the pay because they have no mobility thanks to corporate elite and politicians from both sides. And Trump is part of the system that profit from low cost H1B. In fact he is in record saying that he employs H1B to maximize profit and would be stupid to not use them. He will not do anything other than rile you guys to get your vote. Trump org and Ivanka still producing goods in China. It is funny to see sheeps worship the fox as their savior. Anyway, get your ungrateful a-- back to work and be useful and productive. You might be saved this round.
