How traditional vendors underpay non-citizen workers…

Loss of income. Amit was earning $20/hr. He soon discovered that his employer was billing the client $80/hr for his service. That meant Amit was earning only 25% of the end client's bill rate for his services.
Some employers will exploit foreign workers by sponsoring their work visas and, in turn, providing salaries and benefits far below market value. Because non-citizens rely on their employers to maintain legal work status, the company has little risk of losing their employee–as a result, there is little incentive to increase wages or provide additional benefits.
