Difficult situation - Kindly advise

[QUOTE=moneyIsNot_funny;384459]Typically, I see its only the desi companies (not all of them of course) are the ones who grossly abuse the H1B program and take advantage of the "slaves". I havent been misused and was rewarded amply during my H1B time. Of course, there are always exceptions - but ...

Difficult situation - Kindly advise

[QUOTE=GutsyGibbon;384386]Not sure why you feel so strongly about this. Most people who dream of a life in US, follow the F1 + H1B path. Slaves are those who were kidnapped, held hostage, and made to work for low wages. Don't H1B employees get the same benefits, stock options, ESPP, bonus etc. In ...

Question Related to Salary

[QUOTE=genaccmiller;383671]Rule of thumb from what I have read in this forum is 1/3 US salary. So, that would translate to Rs 20 lakhs.[/QUOTE] When you use this formula, do you consider salary or CTC? If you go by Cost to Company, in US that is fairly high even though your salary might be much less.

R2I - First day at work

Quite surprised! In big cities, and I am sure particularly in Bangalore and NCR area, it is very much the opposite, they tend to express anti feelings towards the R2Ier (recognized by appearance/clothes/accent) any time they get a chance.

Globalization and Kalyug

*** Warning : I hardly understand finance stuff *** In my high school days only I was shocked to learn that US unloads ship full of wheat in the middle of sea and drain away excess milk to keep the price steady.

Observations from recent India trip

[QUOTE=returning_indian;361260]It does not matter where they stand in US. They offer hygienic food in India (novelty in India) and have standardized the process. Plus they offer nice seating areas and are generally located in decent corners of a city. Since opening requires lot of investment in ...
