Tech Workers Allege Bias, Offshoring In GB News Report

India-West News Desk

NEW YORK, NY – A recent report by GB News features American tech workers and immigration experts discussing offshoring trends, allegations of hiring bias favoring Indian workers, and hiring patterns at companies led by Indian-origin executives.

In the documentary, former Google contractor Stephen Vivien describes the experience of seeing jobs moved to India, the Philippines, and Ireland as “mean, harsh and dehumanizing.” Vivien tells GB News he is required to train his replacement after his team’s roles are shifted overseas.

He also alleges that some Indian hires share confidential interview questions within networks to help other Indian candidates secure jobs, describing the practice as “dishonest.”

A former employee of FedEx, who speaks anonymously in the documentary, says conditions worsen during a downsizing program under CEO Raj Subramaniam. The former employee claims her job is moved to India and alleges that a manager, believed by colleagues to be visiting family there, is actually training replacement workers for U.S.-based staff.

Attorney Navdeep Meamber challenges the suggestion that Indian-origin CEOs directly influence hiring decisions. Speaking to GB News, Meamber says such decisions are generally handled by lower-level employees rather than top executives.

Meamber also says many tech workers choose to move back to India while continuing to work for the same employers. She says some return because they can earn similar salaries while benefiting from a different lifestyle in India, including access to domestic help.
