Currently working for company A. Company B is applying for H1B transfer and I will join when it gets accepted. I will also put in notice at company A when H1B transfer is accepted. For the 2 weeks that I’m serving the notice at company A and the time that I’ve joined company B, will I be in trouble for that overlap, or can I only start at B after my notice is served at A?

In my experience you have to leave the country and reenter to "activate" the new employer

A1 and EY1 are both correct. You are allowed to work for employer B files the petition with USCIS. However, many people prefer to wait for petition approval before departing from employer A.

Following. I wonder if it’s ok to take a break after the transfer is approved and before starting with company B
