If they don't have something lined up by Feb. 6, Tu faces having to leave the country.Tu grew up in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, in a working class family. The idea of getting a job at a world-famous company like Instagram seemed like a fantasy.
"I got an email at 6 in the morning. Actually, 6:10 a.m. est." Tu recalls."It was pretty traumatizing." Over the last few months, thousands of immigrants on work visas have been laid off and now have 60 or 90 days to find a new job, or face having to leave the country. Browder says that means many hard-working, talented people are left in a desperate position. A lot of them have spent years in the U.S. They have mortgages, social networks and kids in school.
