Your visa is essentially a visitor visa. You are not authorized to work in USA - you can visit for business while being paid by foreign entity.

It is very different from H1B visa that is tied to a specific employer.

And on a tourist visa, you are not supposed to be looking for a job.

I understand that. But my point is that the process was way easier, faster and better than most European countries, Canada or the UK. For the same type of visa.

Getting a green card or citizenship is much much harder in the US than Canada. It may very well be easier to get a tourist visa, but that doesn't mean anything in the context of green cards.
