Possible H-1b abuse by Uber ? Check out this report in the Mercury News. The report that they are filing for senior level software engineer positions at a level 2 OES wage appears to be a direct contravention of well-established DOL rules. Hopefully, after this practice has been brought to light, the company will take corrective action or if not, the DOL will investigate. For the legal immigration system to work well and not open itself up to extreme restrictions, U.S. employers must play by the rules.
