Companies that file a green card without H1B

I recently got an offer from a series b startup, who tells me that they would file a green card application straight without h1b. I am from a country where green card comes out within 1.5 year after application The current company I am at working only files a green card after h1b. It has been less than 6 months since I started working here. If TCs are the same, and startup work is much more intense than the current company, is this green card filing enough reason to switch? Do you guys know any much bigger companies (Uber Airbnb) who would file green card without h1b?

Here. They start GC as soon as you join.

I know some companies will do GC applications from TN.

What is TN?

TN is a special work visa for Canadians and Mexicans. You typically “shouldn’t” apply for GC while on TN because it’s not a dual intent visa, and you “could” have TN revoked

When I was at Intel years ago, they didn’t do it. Maybe their policy has changed now.

How many years ago? Yes, they do now.

Worst company ever. I have friends crying out that Emc does not file gc until 5th year of h1b.

Dell meh.. Apr 21, 2019

That's not true at all. Depends on your manager but they can file right away.

Can others confirm about Amazon and Microsoft?

Amazon for sure. Both for me and my wife.

Microsoft does and Amazon doesn't help with green card at least for new grads.
