Currently working as contractor at Optum, and manager is trying to convert me as Fulltime remote offer. Received another offer from jpmc as Associate Software engineer at plano,TX location. Currently on H1b visa, not filed GC yet. Current Compensation - 118k JPMC offered Compensation - 120k + Bonus + 5k relocation YOE - 5 years Does anyone know GC policy of optum ? Which one is better offer?
For optum usually they start asap with premium processing. Since your manager is converting you to FTE definitely you are valuable and making impact. Easier and faster way to get I140 than other route.
Banks in general are garbage when it comes to gc processing but chase employees can talk in more detail.
check with your manager @optum. The cost to do GC for optum is ridiculous; needs business CIO and CFO to approve. If your manager understands GC process and is ready to sponsor then go for Optum. Ensure you get at least Grade 28 and negotiate a higher salary
JPMC has usually been very good with immigration handling. But as someone else mentioned, really push to have it included in writing or have a copy of the specific policy that states what the recruiter communicated.
Jpmc Immigration process is too slow.
Jpmc immigration process is slow and for gc you need to get approval from your cto else forget it
Jpmc GC process is too slow. I would say if you are keen towards GC in like an year, avoid JPMC
Can confirm this.
Ditto can confirm this. Avoid jpmc!
Go to Optum if they offer grade 28 with atleast 135k base. GC will happen one way or the other…don’t fret over that. Join JPMC if optum doesn’t offer 135k. You could even try to negotiate with Optum using your JPMC offer.
Can confirm. Also JPMC carries a stigma about having developers that don’t actually know how to develop.

Recruiter told me verbally , that they will start GC process after one year based on performance evaluation. Nothing written on offer letter!
same for F1 folks. They just do transfers.
