Not many realize this, but having the green card process drag out long has a detrimental effect on the whole job market, not just for the specific immigrant.

Yes, It creates serfs/indentured servitude. Both the H1B visa and GC application should belong to the worker/applicant, with conditions (as long as they are employed with the given salary, pay taxes, etc...).
The employee should just be able to do the process themselves, and handle it the papers with their own lawyer.
It is clear that the H1B is setup to maximize the benefits to large corps, and not necessary the american economy/people.

Itβd be nice if there existed any forum that collected these anecdotes. Glassdoor is heavily censored, teamblind requires tying your identity to the account, etc. Lots of toxic workplaces exist and remain unknown outside of rare Twitter threads.
The most insidious thing they did was delay the green card application as much as they could, and just drag things out on purpose. Since I am Albanian/European, I could get it faster as my country is not on the per country cap that Indian and Chinese applicants are. They knew it, as they kept dragging out the first stages of the applications on everything. It was mental abuse.
By 2011, the economy was recovering, and I did switch, but I had to redo all the green card application stuff again.
