The two former employees, who were among 250 Disney workers laid off from their jobs at in Jan 2015 – have also dragged two IT firms HCL Inc and Cognizant Technologies into this class action lawsuit.
However, Disney denied having done any wrongdoing. “These lawsuits are a wholesale misrepresentation of the facts,” the company said. In a statement, Cognizent claimed that it fully complies with all US regulations regarding H-1B visas.
