The Countdown of H-1B Workers Laid Off by Big Tech

Aashka and Nilanjan, who were laid off by Amazon and Google respectively, share their experiences trying to find new jobs in their field that would sponsor their visas. The tech industry has relied heavily on foreign workers, but the link between jobs and residency can be complicated for H-1B recipients.
