When I outsourced several departments to HCL. Managed that contract for 5 years. Spent lots of time hobnobbing with the Sr. Leadership of both companies and their H1B transplants. I've worked in medical, education, and banking, doing the same thing, and the story has been the same each time. The management and sales staff jet around in their leased Teslas. The staff they bring in were generally good people but almost always lacking the actual skills to replace the workers that we let go. Worked for a US based outsourcer also and pretty much the same. Sales made promises that we knew we could't deliver. There are probably exceptions out there, but it's not the norm. HCL was the worst, but Infosys, Accenture... each one I have worked with has been the same. Now, there might be other H1B visas that don't come in this way... but it was NEVER about not being able to find the right local talent.
