@Need Consultation: 1000$ deposit for either onsite or online courses are unheard of, and especially for an online training, does not sound genuine. So, yes one must be aware of such consultancies.
Regarding taking online or onsite, I think if you're into programming or database training, it is strongly advisable to take it onsite where the training is more interactive than online. If you're going for BI, BA or QA, I think online works fine - but again, if there's an onsite training, it would be a little more beneficial as you will also develop personal network with the instructor and other candidates that will be in the field as yours, and it might help later in the future.
Okay, now your queries: Which consultancy is the best? (in terms of the following criteria)
1. H1B visa processing (You or someone you know already got the visa through this C) -I can recommend Vastia Inc. located at Irving, TX. I know many friends of mine who have worked and made their GC or still work with Vastika. I also used to work for them, and from my experience i can say, unlike many Indian consultancies, they are easy to work with, flexible, and have good understanding. Google for their company review and you can view their H1B petitions, GC petitions, approval rates etc.
2. Provision of online classes (w/o a deposit of $1000) - as far as i know, they do have online courses coz I had taken an online course with them some time back.
3. Best for job placement (connections w/ several companies and wait time after marketing less than a month) - they have an array of network with reputable vendors that work directly with clients.
4. Lodging, fooding, and other benefits - i am not sure if they offer these, but assume they would, because to be competitive with other consultancies, they would have to
5. Percentage of Pay cut (Actual dollar value per hour) - not sure what the current percentage cut is, but used to be 70/30 and after a year or project 80/20
Hope this helps. Good Luck.
