Comment #28: The Same Process Playing Out in the EU?

I am working in a global company. We realized in the past 3 years (2016-2019) that slowly all managers, top managers changed to Indians. We (domestic workers) are not involved to project works, we have no authority for approvals, no right to change things. If we automated a process, it is totally ignored, they still do the process with 4 Indians while we have full automation. Projects: nothing written down, everything discussed internally in Bangalore, we involved to projects only with given task name and good luck. I also experienced, that they spent a lot of money to travel an Indian to EU, who is hiring people (strictly alone, without involving domestic member), but stated that there is nobody he could hire. He is planned to move to EU in 2020 with whole family, and continue hiring (probably bringing people from India) They do not care about our culture, they do not respect work-life balance, do not care about our thoughts, if we do not follow them: door is open, they can bring more Indians. I cry, and realize this is the end, better to quit IT. There is nobody who could stand up for EU citizens, if you say something against it: you are stigmatized immediately: you are racist.

This survey was designed to receive input from domestic US IT workers, but the same thing is happening in the EU. This is at least the fourth comment that there is not much of a point for domestic workers to continue to plan careers in the IT field.
