[quote=Anonymous]IBM has been conducting layoffs , almost 10,000 this year.  see http://spectrum.ieee.org/view-from-the-valley/at-work/tech-careers/which-ibm-layoff-numbers-add-up

Yes somehow they need almost 6000 H1Bs because they cannot find american workers?

U.S. Sen. Chuck Grassley is requesting details from IBM regarding the company's use of guest workers from foreign countries, emphasizing that this information is particularly important at a time when layoffs of American workers are ongoing.

In a correspondence dated April 16, Grassley asked IBM Chairwoman, President and CEO Virginia Rometty for an explanation of IBM's apparent plans to "hire thousands of H-1B visa holders." Grassley's concern arose when IBM petitioned for [b]5,800 H-1B visas on April 1.[/b]

"It has come to my attention that IBM will be laying off employees in the United States this year while at the same time apparently seeking to hire thousands of H-1B visa holders," the letter states.
