It has to be 2 years from I-140 date. Can't be 480, because that essentially asking for indentured servitude.

It’s true. They will ask you to sign an agreement before starting the process. I heard it is between 10-15k

They don't follow up on that. Have first hand experience. However you need to leave on good terms with the RP and leadership. They basically sign the clawback letter. In three cases I have not heard of any follow up. It's true that till gc the expenses can run north of 15-20k. Just the 485 filing with USCIS is about a grand I believe.

What’s considered as good terms? What if I just give two weeks notice and say bye, I got an offer from the industry.

I quit PwC 2 months ago, they had filed my perm and i140. HR sends the agreement letter as part of resignation but won’t talk anything about payoff.

If yes, would it be worth the wait given that I don't like what I am doing now....

Does the 2 year include while waiting for process or is it issue date of green card?

No it's 2 years after the issue date.

SM on my project stepped away on paternity leave. SM was the one who led partner discussions and most of the client meetings. We're a week from a client deadline.

As a manager, I'm stepping but incredibly stress with the amount of moving parts. I don't have a strong rapport with the partner (Neither did the SM) to be open and transparent on how stressful I'm feeling without downgrading myself.

I'm sick to the stomach and very anxious, stressed at the suddenness of the thrust.
