From my reading of the following referenced document, what you outline would
not be legal. Title 8 of Code of Federal Regulations (8 CFR)/8 CFR Part 274a
covers your situation.
"Sec. 274a.12 Classes of aliens authorized to accept employment."

"(b) Aliens authorized for employment with a specific employer incident to
status. The following classes of nonimmigrant aliens are authorized to be
employed in the United States by the specific employer and subject to the
restrictions described in the section(s) of this chapter indicated as a
condition of their admission in, or subsequent change to, such classification.
An alien in one of these classes is not issued an employment authorization
document by the Service:
...
(12) An intra-company transferee (L-1) ... An alien in this status may be
employed only by the petitioner through whom the status was obtained ..."
If you need any clarification, please feel free to ask.
