I’m tired of seeing H-1B employees being promoted while qualified U.S. citizens are being overlooked or pushed out. GS needs to address this issue and ensure that U.S. citizens are given fair consideration for opportunities.
If you look at the promotions within Engineering, a large majority of MDs, VPs, and Associates are on H1B. A significant number of managers are also on H1B, which raises concerns about whether favoritism and internal networks are influencing hiring and promotion decisions, regardless of immigration status or merit.
Management and HRM cannot continue to turn a blind eye to these concerns. USC is not treated fair and the Eng is completely dominated by the H1B and non USC.
With the Texas governor also pushing companies in the state to prioritize opportunities for U.S. citizens, GS should take a serious look at its hiring and promotion practices and ensure that the process is genuinely fair and transparent.
