An Indian-origin entrepreneur running an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered Foodtech platform in Canada has gone viral after announcing his plans to leave the country. Maulik Pandya, the CEO and founder of Eatance, took to LinkedIn to announce his decision after enduring a bureaucratic nightmare where he faced a "new trap from the Canadian system" almost every day. "We are leaving Canada. We made this decision through tears. We are dissolving our beautiful nest we built with love as family of four with two wonderful daughters," wrote Pandya. "We did not come to this lightly. We have spent many sleepless nights, cried and watched our mental health and physical health fade," he added. Pandya said his family's journey in Canada was cut short owing to the bureaucratic hurdles that led to issues regarding her daughter's education and the company's future.

An Indian man recently turned to Reddit for advice after struggling to find a job in the US post-Master's, and is now considering returning to India. In his post, titled "Not able to get a job in USA and flying back to India," the user, who goes by the handle @Belly_fat_, shared that he spent over three years working in India before taking a sabbatical in 2023 to pursue a Master's degree in the US. "I completed my degree in 1.5 years, and have been job hunting for the past 6 months-but haven't had any success due to the tough market," he wrote.
Now, with a saturated job market and visa constraints, the user said he is considering returning to India and rejoining his former employer. However, he said that even that option seems uncertain. "The new bench policy-where employees on bench for more than 35 days may be let go-has made me anxious. With the current high bench count, I'm worried I might not get a project in time, and risk losing that job too," he said.

Concluding his post, the Redditor wrote, "It feels like I might end up losing both-my US dream and my position at (the) company. I'm really confused and would appreciate any guidance or suggestions."
The post has gone viral. In the comments section, while some users shared that they are facing challenges, others offered advice.
"I'm a UCLA grad and am jobless as well man. Completely relate," wrote one user.
"Understand your point. Same here, had a verbal offer rescinded. Interviewed for top tech firms only to be blown away by the sheer level of questions being asked now," said another.
"Man! Im trying to find job in Canada as well its been 1 year since I've got my work permit. I'm afraid now after reading your post," shared a third user.

Offering advice, another said, "Take any project that comes your way instead of thinking, 'I have a US degree and this work is beneath me.'" Another echoed the sentiment: "Second this. You do it by taking less than Market Price and improve your portfolio."
"Stay in the U.S dude, just hang in there a little while longer," suggested one user.
"It's only 6 months. If you don't have much financial issue. Try until you can legally. Just don't overstay," commented another.
