Additionally not all H1B's are underpaid. I'm currently in the minority on the engineering team, being one of the few American citizens actually born in America. From discussions with my peers from India they don't make that much less than me. The cost of immigration is factored into their salary of course, but for the most part are on par with market wages.

But the company was also founded by immigrants so this may be an exception rather than the rule.

There is definitely an underbelly for software industry and we do not know how it function. For example I have a friend who has H1B but no job and is working for cash at a superstore for $40 a day.
