Please help! Need a good immigrantion attorney recommendation in SF area. Long story short: my current company lied about visa application when I signed on a contract. Now my visa status is tied to this company only. This changed my status in US meaning I need to leave US within 60 days if my role gets terminated. I did not agree this condition and the company proceeded it without acknowledging it.

Do you know who the lawyer was who did the visa for you? Even if your company paid for it, the lawyer may be able to advise you since they would be familiar with the application.

I’ve been there. Hopefully there is a way that you can transfer the visa. Good luck!

Has anyone ever worked at an agency in which the project management department was properly utilized? I traditionally was brought up in my career where PM type tasks were handled by lower level AMs. I have observed separating AM and PM tasks into two separate departments just causes communication issues and lazy account people. Account people should have a good understanding of how much effort and time goes into a project. Project Managers are missing a lot of context so blind leading blind.
