This company reached out to me about their services two years ago. A quick search convinced me that the ethical practices of the CEO should cause anyone to question working with him.

“Samal was sentenced to 90 days of home confinement with electronic monitoring and 3 years' probation. He was also instructed to complete 288 hours of community service and undergo moral reconation therapy”*

Anyone who has to undergo “moral reconation therapy” may be a dubious business partner.

Googling turned up a bunch of sketch-looking references for this MRT, compared to other therapies I have heard of (CBT, EMDR) . Can any expound on it and how reliable the sources are?

There are too many perverse incentives with H1-B visas. One way to fix it would be to make it an auction based on compensation instead of a lottery. This way the companies that are using it as a way to bring in talent would have preference over companies just bringing in cheap labor.
