    That’s a good point, our stupid federal policies are incentivizing this behavior from Apple. If they hire more Green Card holders, then they have employees that they can pay less, and they literally CAN’T quit for fear of deportation.

    But Apple is also the richest company in the world and they employ enough lawyers to know that they’re not supposed to do this kind of shit, so I don’t really have sympathy for them in this case.

      Green card is permanent residence, you’re confusing it with H1B Visa

        Fair enough, I’m privileged enough to not know the details. But all the big companies do shit like that
