What does AD means?

Would be nice the add citizenship as well so we could see if foreigners are being paid less than locals.

Thanks a lot. That's good to know.

I'm actually in the process of moving the data to the main website (http://www.jobsintech.io/visas), so I'm trying to not mess it up.

  >There's entire companies whose raison d'etre is to provide foreign IT labor at cheaper prices.

Then don't look at those companies. However for example Netflix seem they foreign employee very well.

  > And they aren't held accountable for it, unlike murders; those at least are generally followed up on.

That's not true. They are often being investigated. But you're right the should be punished a lot more.

  > By the way, it'd be worth spending some time sanitizing your data so that it displays correctly.

I'm already spending a lot of time doing it. The work is massive :)

Out of curiosity could you define spammy? People call Glassdoor spammy, is it because there is too much advertising or because they force user to register in order to see more data?

And Green Cards :)

Legal foreign workers are required by law to have the same salary than U.S. workers so it's relevant.

  >I'm searching for companies all of the search results are coming up in all lowercase. This is not a good user experience. You should style the companies using the same case that they themselves do.

The data come from government records and it's all in uppercase.

There is already a ton of websites to check salaries. Glassdoor is the most famous one and I made http://data.jobsintech.io last year.

But the previous employer has to approve the transfert.

They don't pick you up. You have to leave. However the company has to pay for your expenses.

But the USCIS generally approves petitions to change from one employer to the next if the gap between jobs is short. 30 days is acceptable

It's interesting considering that IBM and IBM India filled 836[1] and 5420[2] LCAs for H-1B workers this year already. They are probably still hiring but are getting completely away from some aspect of the business.

  But hey US uses drones to kill little kids in Pakistan and doctors in Afghanistan.

Off-Topic. And taking countries where husbands can throw acid at there wife without legal repercussion is a terrible example.

  Few people through power of majority forcing everyone to pay up for single mothers is government.

It's called solidarity. You might have never heard of it in your cave

This is ridiculous.

  Society does not owe any special treatment to a single mom, not more than any other mom

That's not true, in the US provides aid packages and grants to single mothers.

  Single mother is a choice of an independent woman and if she cant afford it she should probably not make it.

Do you think all single mother chose to me single? Don't you think her previous boyfriend/husband could have dumped her/died/...?

  Instead of being thankful for an employer to have given an opportunity in first place she is ranting against her employer.

May be because said employer is terrible and it's worth sharing so other people would not make the same errors?

  I wont hire such a person.

No worries, she probably has no intention to work for you.

You seriously need to leave your cave and experience the life in a modern society.

And yet San Francisco has no gun store anymore[1]

YC is lobbying to change the H-1B system in order the let startups get more H-1Bs. Infosys is blatantly abusing and cheating the H-1B system so bad that startups are getting penalized when sponsoring H-1B visas.

And now YC is getting in bed with infosys...

Disappointing to see Infosys associated to this initiative.

EDIT: looks like the infosys brigade is downvoting me to hell.

You should not throw number like this out there. It's misleading and It's not how it works :)

It also assume they won't terminate the H-1B when the employee is leaving.

I don't feel targeted to be honest :)

H-1B visas are paid by the employers not the employees.

I'm working on another visa. I also started my own venture now: http://www.jobsintech.io

Oh wow. I'm the French engineer featured in this story, Theo Negri. Still trying to move back to the US. Hopefully this helps more than it hurts!

I must be missing something. I don't understand why not having nation wide election prevent the U.S. from having congressmen to represent those living abroad.

In France we have deputies(Kind of like congressmen in the U.S.) for expats. Deputies cover region of the world(Deputies for french citizens abroad). http://www.ufe.org/fr/vos-interets/representation-parlementa...

They 'make sure' our interests as expat are being covered.

IIRC some countries have treaties with the U.S. and tax American citizens less.

Content curated for upvoted.com is based on the most upvoted stories on reddit[1]. As for what is featured and where on the homepage is probably based on editorial choices as well as most viewed post.

That's the idea behind it. Though Buzzfeed actually have a news branch with actual journalists behind it based in west-coast & east-coast. I was interviewed by a couple of them and it was a pleasant experience. I don't know if upvoted is planning on hiring journalists on staff. May be Alexis can tell us more here.

They also pay incredibly well http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/netflix-inc/2015

To be fair cheques are also popular in the US. Until recently I had to pay my rent with Cheque. I live in an apartment complex in San Francisco.
