The big win for US companies going remote isn't offshoring, but hiring people outside of big cities. The southeast and midwest are much cheaper than CA and the company doesn't have to deal with language, culture, and timezone issues.

I expect some cultural and experience differences between people who did and didn’t relocate to prioritize their careers, in some ways more than people who tried to immigrate but couldn’t get permission.
