Indian employees earn anywhere between 1/8-1/16 of an American employee. And their annual raise is also paltry af.

If that employee is technically competent, he's not going to stay for more than 2 years, if that.

My hope is that in our time together, I can teach them some stuff that elevates them out of the aforementioned slave wage.

I can't get them a fair wage. I can't get myself a fair wage. I can give them som on the job training though...

I can't get myself a fair wage.

Keep giving interviews, ask for minimum 30% more than what you are making, ask for hybrid or WFH.

Since you have a job now, you can afford to be selective.
