Changing jobs after I-485 applied just a week ago.

An employee (Indian citizen) just filed for the I-485 with Company A.
They want to shift jobs to Company B.

If the new role is in the same or similar position as before, what are the things that need to happen before the new Company B can start filing again? Should they re-do the I-140 application?

If the new role is NOT in the same or similar position as before, what happens?

Is it really worth for an Indian citizen (given the enormous backlog for them) to change jobs at this stage, or is it better to wait it out?

Thanks!
