The Swiss don't like them at all, I was told point blank when I went to Switzerland after our acquisition, we don't hire Indians.....made it really interesting when I was responsible for US hiring in our tech group when the Swiss boys had to approve, they sabotaged nearly every interview until I got them on record with their responses.
