How many companies seriously start revoking visa sponsorship the moment an employee pushes back on a Jira ticket?

Really the issue is being fired over it isn't it? The visa just makes being fired worse for employees requiring one.

I would hate to work at a company where a bit of debate on 'is this really a good idea' were a firable offence; sounds like the 'believe it or not - jail' scene from Parks & Recreation! That's satirising a visiting delegation from a developing country under military rule.

Right, and you don't have to because your continued existence in a country isn't dependent on it. Companies with attitudes like that don't reveal it until it's too late.

I just think the existence/prevalence of such places is being wildly overstated... Especially without any sort of 'hey, stop pushing back on every issue, shut up and do your job or you won't have one' type warning.

But then I've never lived or worked in the land of the free, so what do I know.

As someone on a Visa - even a 0.0001% chance of being fired for saying something like this would shut me up.

It just seems even less likely to be such an issue to me than unavoidable things like personality clashes, or getting stuck on some work that someone you report to thinks should be quick and easy, etc.

So you walk on your toes all the time? That seems like a really unhappy way to live.
