2.5 years from manager approval to I-140 approval

For i-140 premium processing?

Mine took 2y and 9months from HR approved to file 140 pp

Mine took 21 months from HR approval to I-140 approval (I paid for premium processing)

4+ years from HR approved and I140 still not approved yet. Am I just unlucky?!?

This one is for folks on h1b visa. So at time when you have an offer in hand(not accepted the offer yet and h1b transfer process not yet begun) while you are working with your current employer, do you even speak to your employer about your new offer to see if they make a counter offer?
Is there a risk involved with this approach assuming your current employer doesn't provide you with a counter offer and they ask you to leave immediately (and your h1b visa hasn't been transferred either)
