If you are on H-1B do not go to Oracle
Oracle and their lawyers are stonewalling people on H-1B who they promised green cards to. You will not get a green card process started no matter what they promise.
Wait what ? Is this cloud in Seattle ?
Not just Seattle every where. I’m in bmc between
From Microsoft?
What if you already have i140 ?
I dunno but I wouldn’t risk it in retrospect. Look up yelp reviews for Berry appleman Leiden. Their efficiency + managers who won’t push for you because of Corp policy.
Doesn’t matter even if you have
Yes, they screwed my GC too. My PERM application has been put on hold for the last 1 year. BAL attorneys are extremely slow in processing documents, they do not reply to your emails or phone calls.
I'm a manager in oci Seattle. I did fill two green cards already with success.
Can I come work for your OCI team? ;-p
Are those applications first timers?
My experience is opposite. The process started on day one. BAL responses my email in half a day.
Good for you man!
My H1b transfer took 3 months just to get receipt and they don’t do premium like lot other companies
@Hiccup: mine took 3mo. My teammate 4mo. After I got my receipt # I checked - they filed it days after they said they did.
Mine h1b took 2 days ..not Oracle thou
😂
My easy-bake cake took 10 minutes ..not Oracle thou
Bal started my friend's GC on day one. This was 4 years back
Processing of GC in oracle on day 1 is totally at managers discretion and if any delay is happening then it is your manager. I had experience with BAL in Microsoft as well and now in oracle also, I consider very professional, experienced and detailed in their work, which takes time but should be the way in any paper work that can change your life. Better to take a little time than to make a mistake. My gc is under process in oracle. Also processing times from USCIS have increased dramatically in last year or so, something which is not in anyone’s control
Very true, same happened to me. My bullshit manager kept lying to me all the time on this
To him you are just a name on the list of workers. Time to start looking after your own interests
