On top of that, they will work for as little as $8/hour and they squeeze 10 or more into a company paid apartment.

It is not uncommon for an Indian to be paid half of their US counterpart but only get $8/hr from it as their company keeps the rest.

I see these Indian single guys in packs at my local Costco here in Florida. One of the workers there was complaining to me that these guys pass around one membership card to all their friends figuring the workers can’t tell the difference. So they are cracking down on that.

I don’t know if I believe the $8 per hour, but I know I saw an ad a few years ago for a position in the LA area for what appeared to be a software tester for GPS receivers, paying $33 per hour.

That would be a fairly difficult job, and it’s essentially $66k per year, no benefits, in LA.

That’s not even new-grad pay.

$8 an hour when the company is rating them out at $35 to $120 per hour or more.

It is organized crime.
