Visa processing for attending company conference at US while working remotely from Bangladesh
I work for a US software company remotely from Bangladesh and my employer wants me to join a conference with a partner company investing in our company.
My employer booked air-tickets, hotel reservation part of the conference and I book a hotel in LA outside conference days.
I submitted the D160 form myself and applied for a B2 Business visa that is the sole purpose and my employer will be sending an invitation letter before the interview at embassy that I will take with me for an interview.
Is there anything employer should mention in the invitation letter and any other paperwork or invitation should send to the embassy directly (again, non-immigrant visa)or is there anything I am missing??
I know their many software engineers work remotely for US software company from other countries and help from experienced will be appreciated.

Tourist visas do not allow you to work as employed in the issuing country. But, they do not prohibit you from doing your 'home' work while on vacation. So anyone from anywhere who is working on their laptop or smartphone while on short or long vacation is not under any penalty.Can I work remotely in another country on a tourist visa?
There's no universal visa rule for every country in the world. Some countries might allow you to work on a tourist visa if the scope of your work is limited to your country of residence, for example, while others might take a harsher approach, even if you're not interacting with the local workforce.US VISA Interview Process
