He is legal. It is plenty j1 holders who don`t come by their supposed to be employers.

That is not entirely true. It all depends on which program your friend is on. He is legal if following conditions exist:

1. He is registered with SEVIS and maintains updated information about his residence in the US

2. His program sponsors know about change of employer and have no objections

3. He wasn't reported by the above mentioned sponsors.

Again, it all depends on which program he's on. Majority of J1 Work&Travel Students change employers frequently and it's not a problem. However, there are some program sponsor out there who do not support such practice and terminate the program for students who do not follow the requirements, which pust students out of status in the US and requires them to go home.
