I accepted an offer from another consulting firm and my H1B visa has also been transferred. I have not joined the new role yet. However I had been interviewing with another firm and expecting an offer I know this is not the best practice but is it allowed to accept another offer even though H1 transfer has been approved through another employer? If I accept the second offer does this raise any red flags with USCIS as they potentially see 2 almost consecutive visa transfer requests?

No it doesn’t matter.

No just make sure the new company has the receipt/approvals for all H-1Bs filed on your behalf. They will be able to pull everything up in addition to your counsel providing your recent pay statements which establish maintenance of status.
