I didn’t get my H1B last year so my company transferred me to London. I’m planning to stick it out here for the next 4-5 years till I make manager, after which I can come back on a L1A visa. What’s the L1->EB1C timeline like for Indian nationals?

Separately, my current hypothesis is that the upside to getting a UK ILR is limited. Am I wrong in thinking so? Would appreciate any advice here. Thanks!

Why not come back now on L1B ?
For Indian first priority you are looking at 3-5 years from the moment you start the paperwork till you get it. But timeline XS change a lot by then

At KPMG, was going to go up for M last year but it would have been a tad early (only 2.5 years at senior) so I decided to push it back to this year. This year, after talking about my business case since last summer, I was now just told I won’t even be given the opportunity to go up for M at all, with very weak reasoning. I pour a lot of time and effort into my job and this felt like a true sand banging. Has this happened to anyone else? Is it firm being cheap w/ the current economy? TIA.

Please note that I have to give a couple of exams/certifications, one of which I failed very recently. This is keeping me from asking my employer about the GC process. Am I being irrational? Any advice or help would be highly appreciated. Thank you.
