Finally got a survey email within Deloitte asking for feedback for GGS on immigration matters. Hoping something good comes out of it.

Looks there's no doubt law firms aren't the best. But do understand that our companies themselves aren't really tripping over themselves to deal with immigration.

It's in their best interest to do it. Causes lot of revenue loss, goodwill with client (when they cannot staff or an existing staff has to leave due to visa issues).

GGS is absolutely awful and it's been that way for a while and everyone knows it. I thought work was being done to rectify issues but guess they're still busy sending surveys

Why doesn’t D fire GGS and get better lawyers...their business model needs an effective and efficient law firm

If in their best interest to do so why do all the companies on here have horror stories with their law firms.

Deloitte consulting used to have fragomen..not sure why the hell they went on to try Guberman

People used to think Fragomen was worst until they dealt with GGS 😂

Worse than Fragomen. How is that actually possible

I filled the survey and slammed GGS. Fragomen was a class act compared to the disaster that is GGS

A1, why don't you hire GGS and see for yourself 😊

Gobar-man and Gaand-son needs poor reviews. Lets all do it.

I have marked disagree in most questions in survey

Hi
I have received an offer from a company and I'm in the second stage of interviews with another company. I am very interested to see if I could make it through for the second company. So can I accept the offer from first company and then if second one also sends an offer then let the first company know I would like to reject? Also i am on H1B visa. Should I be concerned with that?

So
- I didn't get selected in the H1B lottery.
- My company has agreed to send me to their London office for a year (haven't yet filed application).
- OPT ends in late June, so I can stay till mid-late August (grace period).

Question:
Should I just move to London as soon as I'm able to, or is it worth waiting until the end of my OPT in August in case they do a second round of the H1B lottery?
