1. Infosys, Tata and Cognizant are all Indian companies. Writer doesn't make that clear.

So, are we importing workers from those three companies?

I believe Tata is India's largest company. They even own Air India: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tata_Group

The Tata Group (/ˈtɑːtɑː/) is an Indian group of companies headquartered in Mumbai.[3][4] Established in 1868, it is India's largest business conglomerate, with products and services in over 160 countries, and operations in 100 countries.[5]

There are total 29 publicly listed Tata Group companies with a combined market capitalisation of ₹33.7 trillion (US$403 billion) as of 20 August 2024.[6]

Infosys should not be confused with Unisys

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infosys
Infosys Limited is an Indian multinational technology company that offers business consulting, information technology, and outsourcing services. Founded in 1981, the company is headquartered in Bengaluru.[5]

On 24 August 2021, Infosys became the fourth Indian company to achieve a market capitalization of US$100 billion.[6][7] As of 2024, Infosys is the second-largest Indian Big Tech company by revenue and market capitalization.[5]

Infosys has also attracted controversies due to allegations of visa and tax fraud in the United States and for creating malfunctioning government websites.

I never heard of Cognizant, but apparently it is US based, but was founded in India. Most of their employees are in India
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognizant

Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation is an American multinational information technology services and consulting company. It is headquartered in Teaneck, New Jersey, U.S. Cognizant is part of the NASDAQ-100 and trades under CTSH. It was founded in Chennai, India, as an in-house technology unit of Dun & Bradstreet in 1994,[6] and started serving external clients in 1996.[6] After a series of corporate reorganizations, there was an initial public offering in 1998.[7] Ravi Kumar S has been the CEO of the company since January 2023, replacing Brian Humphries.[8]

As of December 2023, the company has over 347,700 employees globally, of which about 254,000 are in India across 11 cities with a plurality in Chennai.[110][111] On 20 January 1994, Cognizant registered its branch in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, India with the legal name Cognizant Technology Solutions India Private Limited. The other centers of the company are in Bangalore, Bhubaneswar, Chennai, Coimbatore, Gurgaon, Hyderabad, Kochi, Kolkata, Mangalore, Mumbai, Noida, Pune and Indore. The company has local, regional, and global delivery centers in the UK, Australia, Hungary, Netherlands, Spain, China, Philippines, Canada, Brazil, Argentina, Mexico etc.[112][113][114][115][116]

2. I doubt if anyone working in IT doesn't know of jobs going overseas at the cost to American Jobs.

My BIL at Mastercard spent his days dealing with folks from India doing the grunge software work to keep the business going. A few well placed H1-b holders get the company's foot into the door, overcoming the language issues and set up the tech workers at 1/2 the wages....and less.
