Hi Jay,
I am a citizen of US. I did a 1 year gig 3 years ago to get into e-commerce once. I was working for a contractor and I was on "bench" for 3 months after which I quit and found a better job. I was paid fully during those three months, I got an annual review, a rise and a bonus during that time. If the contractors paid these H1B visa holder while they are on bench, why would it be illegal?
