From what the article describes the benefits of working for such a company are transparently honest and fair plus that work gives experience with robust management practices and international business culture. In these countries a good job with fair and regular pay that prepares workers for expanding career possibilities is a really big deal.

And there is evidence of this opportunity focused mindset in the US. Last I checked the highest earning demographic segment in the US was Nigerian immigrants. Being ready to work hard and conscious of the risk of failure makes a huge difference in how pay, work, and business operations are evaluated.

That has more to do with the fact that only the most highly skilled and educated Nigerians manage to emigrate to the US. You see something similar with Indian immigrants, also a very high earning demographic.

Makes me think of what would be possible if we stopped reverse-brain-drained emerging countries like this..
