More details to this question:
Hi, I am a RN who was sponsored by my employer. My green card was issued and it has been 7 months now since I started working for my agency. My contract is 2 year and half and it states that I have to pay 15000$ if I leave them in the middle. However, I believe that my wage is too low and cannot continue working with insanely poor benefits. I now just want to leave my work and find a job on my own. Is it going to damage my resident status if I do so?

Your employer cannot revoke your green card. However, they could sue you for breach of contract if you don't pay the amount. You should have a lawyer look over the contract to see if there is a way you can get out of the contract.
