Description

Welcome to "That Sweet Salary" podcast hosted by Ben Harris & Emily Green. In today’s episode, we break down the Trump administration’s latest move to slap a $100,000 annual fee on H-1B visa workers—and why tech giants like Microsoft and JPMorgan are sounding the alarm. What does this mean for U.S. jobs, innovation, and the global talent pipeline? Could this push companies to offshore high-paying roles? And is this even legal? If you're job hunting, hiring, or just trying to understand how global policy shifts affect your paycheck, this one’s for you. Let’s get into it.
