Is this true- once you get an H1b and get laid off and leave the country, a new employer can apply for transfer for the next 6 years?

Whoa.. Slow down. If you don't have a 140 approved (and pending as it is for most Indians) and spend more than 365 days out of the US then you will be subject to cap again if trying to revive the h1b. If you have an approved and pending 140 along with either pending for more than 180 days or not revoked by petitioner, then you can apply to revive h1b anytime but the approval period will vary on the exact circumstances

To think it’s cap exempt for 6 years.

Hi guys,

My current company laid off my complete team (including myself) few days back. I've managed to crack an interview at a MNC but the HR is unwilling to give me more than 10% increment on my current salary since I joined my current company only 6 months back.

Do y'all think I should accept the offer and secure a job first without thinking too much about negotiation? And then maybe try to find better offers?

My manager is not aware of my adhd and I have crippling fear and shame around it so I'd rather not tell him. The office environment I'm in is honestly any neuroduvergent's nightmare. I know it's probably wrong to not tell him but I don't want any judgement.
