Working for Amazon in a Europe office with not much of opportunities. Would like to change. I have an offer from FB in London, and would like to maybe relocate to FB in Seattle after 1 year on L1. Another option would be to relocate to Amazon in Seattle directly on L1 right now (since I've been here for a year already). It takes 2 years on average to get GC. So I would not be able to switch to FB in Seattle before 2 years. Correct? Which option is better for my career/family and why?
I'm so jealous... I'd do anything to work at Facebook London.
Why would you want to move to this shithole of a country?
Because of opportunities. Can you please elaborate more on shittiness?

Anybody that claims Amazon isn’t a bad company should look at this poll
The GC bit is not true. I spoke with colleagues that relocated there and they applied immediately. It is true that it takes over 1 year to process thought.
Can't you transfer companies while on L1? I thought I read people can
No, only after getting GC.
Or tranfer visa to H1B.
What did you end up doing?

Crossed a line with my boss
Depends on your willingness to "lose" a year. I heard FB London is a great place to work so I'd go with FB (they do GC instantly on arrival)
