‘Indians are hiring Indians’: Former Google contractor says he was asked to train his replacement

'भारतीयों को काम पर रख रहे हैं भारतीय': पूर्व Google ठेकेदार का कहना है कि उन्हें अपने प्रतिस्थापन को प्रशिक्षित करने के लिए कहा गया था

A former Google contract employee told GB News how his team’s jobs moved to India, Ireland and the Philippines.

Stephen Vivian, a former Google contractor, said it was rude, harsh and inhumane when he was asked to train his replacement and sent his entire team’s jobs to India, the Philippines and Ireland. Vivian said this for an H-1B documentary for GB News, in which American techies who lost their jobs due to H-1B and mostly Indians were interviewed. The documentary also aimed to explore the difference in appointment patterns after individuals of Indian origin became CEOs of top companies.Vivian said that she discovered that whenever an Indian is hired, they share confidential interview questions with other Indians and the network flourishes in this ‘dishonest’ way.A former FedEx employee anonymously told GB News that things gradually began to deteriorate after Raj Subramaniam became CEO, as a downsizing program was underway. There was a lot of offshoring and their jobs also went to India. He said there were several managers on his team, and one of them, he thought, was visiting family in India but the manager was actually training replacement American workers in India.Indian-origin lawyer Navdeep Member, who was interviewed for the documentary, said that the CEO being of Indian origin has no impact on the appointment because the CEO does not know who is being appointed and these decisions are taken by lower level employees. But he confirmed that many tech workers go back to India as part of offshoring. Life in India is much better than the US as there are many domestic workers to be found there, Mimber said, adding Indians are moving back because they are getting the same pay with the same employers working from India.In the documentary, immigration expert Rosemary Jenks said that President Donald Trump cannot completely stop H-1B visas because Congress has started the program, but at least Trump has taken a disincentive step by imposing a fee of 100 thousand dollars on all new H-1B entries from outside the US. But this did not reduce the numbers because foreign students who are already in the US are not subject to the new fees and enter the job market through the OPT program.
