Описание: For years, the H-1B visa was the ultimate golden ticket for Indian software engineers. You land in Silicon Valley, secure a six-figure salary, and build a life in America. But in 2026, that dream has turned into a high-stakes psychological trap.

As Silicon Valley cuts over 150,000 tech jobs in the first half of 2026 alone, thousands of highly qualified Indian tech professionals are running out of time on their strict 60-day visa clocks. The traditional backup plan was simple: pack your bags, head back home, and plug into India’s booming tech sector.

But there’s a massive problem. The safety net is gone.

If you want to understand the real structural shifts happening in the global tech workforce, this video is a must-watch.
