This Sub Opened Has Changed My Perspective

This is not a post bashing on companies, management or employers but I guess I wanted to share something that I realized after joining this sub a couple of weeks back.

After reading all the stuff some of you folks go through (specially in the US) which is crazy to think that in 3rd world countries (at least the ones I've lived in) most of the stuff you share is just illegal (reduce payment, firing over sick leave, controlling sick leave, vacation and holidays shenanigan's, fucking around with your severance package, etc.) my perspective on US companies has changed a lot.

Question: How difficult is to land jobs in those type of companies in the US? This is IT sector (goods and/or services), think SAP, Apple, Dell, HP, Lenovo, Deloitte, IBM, Oracle, etc.) not to say those are “good” companies, just giving examples.
