L1 visa vs DAY 1 CPT- what do I choose?

I can go to India work from India office for a year and HR said that they will bring me back to US on L1 (but not written commitment).given no commitment plus political situation I’m hesitant
OR
I leave the company and admit myself in day 1 cpt which will allow me to work full time but not sure if companies hire on day 1 cpt plus I’m expecting a major salary cut. (Currently I’m paid $220k base)

I’m in US btw.

If your company will support your return to the USA, then L1 visa. Does your company support Day1-CPT? If not, remember the fact that you will be quitting a stable job for 2 more attempts of H1 , where results are not certain.

This is more of a personal choice.

P.S, I am sorry you have to go through this.
