I got a verbal offer from a global bank. They haven’t given me my offer letter yet, and said they need to check up on the Visa situation first. I’m on the TN Visa. Should I be worried?

Trump made the TN visa really hard to get.

I actually lost a job offer (for an internal strategy role at a CPG), because they said TN was too much of a risk.

Alternatively, there are employers who will be *very* flexible with the way they write the job descriptions to make sure you get in on a TN.

Did they give you an offer letter? Or was it just a verbal offer?

🤷‍♂️. Let me know when you hear back. Good luck.

What’s the job title/responsibilities? I got an offer from global bank as well but they would only take me on bc I have an H1B and said TN wasn’t an option for the role anymore. Trump tightened the rules around TN somewhat.

They told me pretty quickly but because I was on H1B, it was more of a « we are doing the H1B bc as far as we know, we cant do TN for this type of role »

Engagement manager, Leading transformation projects in partnership with business.

I have gotten more than one talking to regarding being overly eager to cooperate with the other side and push towards a settlement. My boss told me that he doesn’t really respect lawyers who “chase settlements.” I told my boss that I was taught only the most factually contentious cases should be tried and the rest should be settled. He said he completely disagreed. I am concerned that my favorite part of the job is off the table. I LOVE negotiating and haggling. Any advice?
