The reason big corpos love H1B is because the employees have no workers rights and can't really quit, because they will be deported in a few months after their H1B ends. Those employees are far more vulnerable. This is why big tech loves it so much. The dependency makes them fully reliant on doing all the corpo stuff like unpaid overtime.
Nearly half of my workplace is on H1B and it is consistently used as a tool to delay and prevent salary increases and promotion. Some people have worked for us for years at the same rate merely because they are on a work visa.
We need a MF union.
