    Just because that’s what the law is supposed to do doesn’t mean it is actually effective. They might hire a US Engineer with a Bachelors degree, while hiring an H1B who did a Bachelors in India, worked for IBM India for 3 years, came to the US and did 2 years for their Masters degree . Then they both have the job title “Software Engineer IC2” so technically they can pay them the same. But the cutoff for promotion from IC2 to IC3 is entirely arbitrary so the government can’t regulate it. But they get someone with 5 additional years of career investment at the same price.
