"Why would anyone have loyalty to a company that has no loyalty in return".

As a temporary US worker, hopping to a new job is too risky. Will I get fired at a new job?, I need to get a job fast or leave the country.

Also, there's a lot of uncertainty over what happens if your employer started a green card process, and you want to switch jobs.

The slavery of foreign workers looking to employers to sponsor them on their path to citizenship. We have a similar program in Canada, and it's really sad to see talented people stuck at dead end jobs making crap money, all because their employer is their visa sponsor. It's even worse in the lower wage sectors with temporary foreign workers.
