Hi Peter, thanks for doing this!

I just got H1B lottery. The company is promising that they would apply for the green card as soon as I'm in US. My question is: is that possible for them to do that, generally and given the current scenario?



Legally, yes, but if the company was going to go the PERM application route, that process could be derailed by layoffs by the company and/or overall unemployment.
