Since the Trump administration started making US work visa reforms to make America great again, Indian IT companies have been looked down upon as agents of monopoly on H1B visa. With the back-to-back release of US visa and immigration reform policies, the IT sector of India has been in doldrums, thereby axing their employee strength at senior levels on grounds of unsatisfactory performance. In 2017, Indian media reported that Infosys, a global core banking market leader would cut its employee headcounts in India and go on a hiring spree in the US over the next two years. In addition to H1B visa issues, process automation and digitation added to the force behind this move.

What Indian media reported about IT giant Infosys’ strategy for the future has become a reality for techies in the United States, including Indian Americans. Recently, Infosys announced to set up a $21 million regional center in the US state of Connecticut and employ more than 1,000 people over the next four years.
