Wow, all of you might be maintaining me chaotic! My email is complete of questions about Vancouver. As promised, this is my follow-up post about what happens now in regards to the H1B visa situation and the Vancouver Development Centre. Please understand that this is all happening quickly and I am doing my best to keep up. I will share with you everything I know, but in exchange, I ask for your understanding and patience if some of the details are still evolving over the next few weeks. Right now, we are all painfully active planning for Vancouver and we are contacting all of the managers who have impacted employees and asking them, “Do you want to have this person work in Vancouver?”. If the answer is “yes”, this is what happens next: We are working behind the scenes to align your office space and project in Canada. We are also figuring out the concerns around Canadian visas,Windows 7 Download, relocation packages and travel expectations to-and-from Canada. We expect to roll out “new” Vancouver offers in late July or early August. You will receive the new letter from your recruiter. These offers will be comparable in compensation/benefits to your last offer. We hope to relocate people to Canada and have them start working as early as September or as late as November,Office 2007 Product Key, and we suspect these start dates will happen in “waves” depending on the details of each case. Vancouver will likely be comprised of lots of different people working on lots of different teams that have counterparts in Seattle, although there is talk about permanently housing intact teams in Vancouver in the future. In addition, let me clear up a rumor: There is space for everyone in Vancouver. While I can’t disclose the exact number of people who had rejected H1Bs, or the office space capacity in Vancouver, I can tell you that I have looked into it and there is plenty of room for all. On the other hand, if the manager's answer is “no”, this is what happens next: In addition to asking teams if they want to have their current hires relocate to Vancouver, we are also asking them, “How many new hires would you like to have if extra people become available?”. Some teams with aggressive hiring goals are pre-slotting new openings in Vancouver now. This means that if your immediate manager does not want you to move, that we will proactively try to find you a new role on another team in Canada. In this case, you won’t have to interview again and your offer compensation and title won’t change. However, your manager and team would change. We would then roll out an offer to you in the same process noted above. It all sounds good, right? For the most part it is, although there is one wrinkle. This currently looks very favorable for SDE and SDETs, although it is slightly rougher for PMs, Media specialists or other roles. There is a general opinion that some roles function better remotely than others,Microsoft Office Pro 2007, so while I suspect I can safely encourage the SDEs and SDETs that everything is going to work out fine, I’m not yet sure about other roles. This remains to be seen. For those of you wondering when new jobs will be open in Vancouver for new people to apply,Genuine Office 2010, the answer is, I don’t know, yet. We will continue to hire people into Vancouver, but we are currently focused on placing the people who have offers now. I will be off of work next week on vacation,Purchase Office 2010, so you can expect my responses to lag until I return on the 23rd. Where will I be going on vacation? Vancouver! Really! And, it’s not a business trip - it is purely for fun. Vancouver is an awesome city, and for any of you who are looking at a move there, you should be thrilled. -Jenna
