Almost none of the types of companies you are referring to use US staff for the grunt work. They may have sales, management and leads in the US. But even the major firms like Deloitte and Accenture use off shore labor for the most part.
You’re not going to want to pay the rates that they will charge for their best of the best hands on developers based in the US and if they did start staffing lots of devs in the US, they wouldn’t be price competitive.
I have worked at AWS Professional Service (full time direct hire) and now work at a third party consulting company as a “staff consultant”. Only a few large and/or well funded companies (and government agencies pre-DOGE) were/are willing to pay the rates that the companies charge to have me on a project.
Even then, they lean on me far more for leadership and strategy than hands on keyboard
