From my experience it would be faster and cheaper to reapply if you have a valid LMO and support of employer. Reconsideration still leaves too much chance that the person reconsidering may still not understand. New app gives you opportunity to get it right and present it clearly to new eyes. Would include a cover letter clearly describing error in previous refusal. Good luck.Swetas said:As per lawyer he does not give a clear picture wat exactly the process and timing will be for reconsider.
Will it be better to reapply for work permit ? Or challenge the decision of the refusal of work permit.
As per the Gcms notes visa officer is confused with the company name and it brand name.

You don't have much to lose so you can always TRY a reconsideration letter and spell out the company connection the VO doesn't understand. Be fast. Be sure to include UCI and your name and birthdate so they can get the right file.Swetas said:Yes, that the reason stated in the notes that visa officer unable to understand the connection between the two names and as it is a startup company it just got 4 employee at present.
I am fedup with the lawyer he just keep delaying and never give a proper direction and process to be followed.Pippin said:Quick thought: does the company have sufficient employees to qualify to hire you? I can't remember exact numbers, but believe it depends on location of business.
