The companies will claim it’s the cost of living difference or they are unable to find an American worker.
If they’re doing work of an American. They need to be paid like an American.
Also h1b should be eliminated. H1b are abusive.
If they can’t find an American then they’re paying shit.
Denmark comes up often because McDonald’s workers make a decent wage. Denmark also does not have a minimum wage but wages bargain for as an industry. I wouldn’t mind that system in America.
I’m paid very well but I wouldn’t mind all IT workers must make at least X. It would end those stupid jobs ads where they want 10 years of experience, a masters degree, expertise in 10 specific technologies and want to pay 15 an hour.
