        Technically the new employer can file a bridge petition. But dont join the new employer till both the extension with existing employer as well as the bridge petition is approved. Also, if the extension gets denied, but the transfer bridge petition gets approved then you will have to leave US, get H1 stamped and return.

        This is my opinion not legal advice.
