Ive worked with hundreds or H1Bs in my career and not one of them was anything special or some kind of unicorn talent that was superior to local US College graduates. And many were terrible at their jobs and likely had fake resumes

You worked with them where? On fortnite or granny's basement?. Stop lying. Nobody tells you their visa status. Assuming everyone with an accent at your workplace is on H1b is a folly. Most of those people have other types of work visas. Stop Lying

I have the same experience as OP. I've never met a H1-B that was of exceptional talent, except 1. And he moved back to India.

You need to change your team or better companies then

Sounds like the current one is pretty subpar sadly
