BREAKING: IOWA IS LAYING OFF 200 STATE IT WORKERS AND OUTSOURCING THEIR JOBS TO COGNIZANT, THE #3 H-1B EMPLOYER IN AMERICA.
We have covered Cognizant extensively as being a H-1B body shop, importing largely Indian nationals to contract with large American corporations.
Cognizant has been certified for 152,483 H-1B workers since 2015. In 2024, a federal jury found the company discriminated against its non-Indian employees. In 2019, two of its top executives were charged with foreign bribery.
The state's data centers are moving to the cloud within Amazon, the #2 H-1B employer.
The laid-off Iowans are being told they can apply for jobs at Cognizant.
Gov. Reynolds claims this saves taxpayers $525M over a decade. The actual contract price was not disclosed.
Cognizant is technically headquartered in New Jersey, but their leadership team is nearly 100% Indian, with the top 9 listed on their website shown here.
One of the biggest problems is this guy visits Bangladesh and thinks this is what California should become. He has no self awareness about what makes this country great and thinks it would still be great when whites are a small minority.
The $100k h1b visa fee was just struck down by a federal court!
It’s been so depressing the last 6 months when my Indian students asked “how do I get a data engineering job in the US?” And my answer basically, “you don’t because of Trump”
These visa fees were another reason I had to visit Bangalore and Hyderabad this year.
Because if we can’t bring the brains to America, the brains will continue building amazing things in India.
And the phenomenal entrepreneurs and engineers I met in India were incredible. The world is balancing out.
It’s amazing to see America still has its checks and balances necessary to keep it being a land of immigrants and new ideas!
Today is one of the few days in a very long time that I say I’m proud to be an American and that my government is doing something right
The replys on this thread are hilarious. Makes it more obvious that Hispanics need to be part of tnd and there is no alliance with them, catholic or not.
One of the United States biggest historical fumbles was not taking the northern Mexican states when we had the chance to in 1848 alongside the territory that we did acquire. Do you agree or disagree?
@wyshynski Lol so taking a team that won 2 championships with a guy who was 2nd in points and a vezna stud goalie but not winning the division is jack adams worthy....what a joke
The British government is saying they're banning me because I am "a serious risk to the public order" due to my criticism of Israel.
They say that my charge that Israel controls the American government through donations to 94% of Congress, while factual, is antisemitic nonetheless. Don't know if facts will soon be banned in Britain.
I didn't get banned for criticizing the UK, but for criticizing Israel. They broke the irony record by saying it was because I said Israel might control other governments. I wonder if they're going to ban themselves.
Think about it - if I had said that the Israeli government controls the British government so thoroughly that they'll ban someone from coming to the UK just for criticizing Israel, they would have said that was an antisemitic statement. This is absolutely Kafkaesque.
@ZaidJilani Lol literally everyone hates indians we just dont to around autistically screeching all the time. Once the boomers die off there will be legislation to stop your invasion
Indians took over these companies and actively discriminate against white people. Ibm just had to pay millions fines. Microsoft is moving more and more jobs to India because indians chose their own race over Americans
@Sabrestalkv2 The defensive side is what worries me. Guy is a shutdown beast, tons of takeaways, and a pk beast. The sabres had one of the top pks last year and he was a big reason why.
