So far I've only heard about this one boss, so CT still has time to get in front of it. If they don't go beyond "we're shocked and looking into it" I'll be the second to join your boycott though.
Even just to renew their brand image, wouldn't now be a great time for the CT corporation to come out publicly against hiring outside of the country; make it policy? Could even put together a happy workforce montage advert with a “we’re hiring local” voiceover to publicize the change.
imo the source of the problem is the TFW program itself.
Defense for programs that enable debt bondage and human trafficking hasn't changed much since the early 1900s either: agriculture would collapse, industry in general would be in ruins, it's a lot of money to Them, local workers are too lazy, and "if you don't want to go back to slavery, this is the best we can do."
We can do better than what the guys in this news bit describe.
