A H1 Visa is a great job perk for wannabe immigrants to US. Do you want to know the worst part of it?
H1 is supposed to be for high skill individuals, the actual people getting it are really like the absolute worst mid level corporate sycophants. The real high skill individuals are likely working at start ups, bootstrapping, or successfully running their own start ups. Who will never get Visas.
There are also other H1 candidates like doctors, Many of whom I think justifiable deserve it.
Either way the Indian start up ecosystem is growing wildly due to these Visa restrictions. Most people who would have likely started in San Francisco given a chance are starting up here now.
