India Body Shop Infosys Guilty of Widespread Visa Fraud
Submitted by mayday on Sat, 02/26/2011 - 17:20It's no secret to any one working in the technology sector India offshore outsourcer Infosys abuses foreign guest worker visas, and labor arbitrages. After all, it's their business model.
Now, one lone consultant is trying to do something about it. He filed a whistle blower lawsuit due to the retaliation of Infosys after trying to do something about Infosys' brazen U.S. immigration law violations, all to displace U.S. labor through offshore outsourcing contracts. Here's what he was trying to expose:
An American employee of Infosys has filed a case against the Indian company accusing it of systematic visa and tax fraud to increase profits. In his 13-page complaint filed before an Alabama Court early this week, Jack Palmer alleged that Infosys sent lower level and unskilled foreigners to the US to work in full-time positions at its customer sites in direct violation of immigration laws.
Palmer, who says he worked for Infosys as "Principal - Enterprise Solutions" since August 2008, alleged that the company was paying these employees in India for full-time work in the US without withholding federal or state income taxes, and overbilled customers for the labour costs of these employees.

BofA: Train your replacement, or no severance pay for you
Submitted by Tunnel Rat on Thu, 06/18/2009 - 08:24This is the most disgusting thing I've ever read. From a few years back, the SFGate exposes what has been going on for over a decade in high-tech America. I cam across this after Googling "Bank of America Outsourcing", looking for amunition to send my BofA rep who is handling my mortgage:
