I worked at FAANG and knew more than one Indian on H1B. They weren't getting paid "the same but slightly less". They were getting like 50k TC on a team where the rest of the team was making 200+.

I don't believe this for a second.

Were they outsourced?

To my knowledge that is unambiguously illegal and I hope they band together to get justice. Were they aware of others in shared circumstances?
