I have a friend who is a project lead there and...yeah, this is basically 100% the case. It is practically documented policy honestly, because the US workers won't deal with the hours that the Taiwan staff is willing to put up with. Execs have complained to him on a few occassions as to why they can't seem to hire/retain enough staff, which I think is why they just started bringing in Taiwanese workers.
H1-B visa workers are easier to exploit than citizens & permanent residents.
I bet it is rather that they prefer people who are more familiar with their own culture, language, expectation of work ethics and so on. Skilled workers on work visa can be sourced from all over the globe but they only want Taiwanese.
I thought that goes without saying:
But this article isn’t about Taiwanese H1-B visa workers vs other H1-B workers, it’s about H1-B workers vs domestic workers. The fact that almost all those H1-B workers happen to be Taiwanese is a bit of a red herring.
You and @[email protected] both are right
Which is inherently discriminatory. Especially when their lawyers have absolutely told their executives that and they could care less.
