L2 EAD pending - employment query
Filed my L2 EAD renewal on 10-dec-2019. Current EAD will expire 31-Jan-2020. I am currently employed by a international megacorp (Fortune 100), which means it has international entities and offices in practically all countries.

My understanding is that I can’t work on “US soil” without EAD (pls correct me if this assumption verbatim is wrong or if it has a broader meaning).

Question:

1. till EAD is pending, can My company’s US legal entity (where I am currently employed and being paid from) still pay me in my current US bank account while I “physically” move to another country and continue my work as is (home or another country with its work visa) = I am not on US soil till I get my EAD ..... path of least disruption.

1a. Same as 1 - but if I also get a different bank account in another country, does it help?

2. If my company moves me to another country with a work visa (say Canada, UK, India), my pay source will be a foreign legal entity of my company. In that case, can I physically be in US and work for that foreign entity? And can that foreign legal entity still pay me me in my US account as it is right now?

Appreciate advice from the community in light of the torturous and degrading wait times for EAD these days which affects us all professionally and financially.
