Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Green-card filing pattern in this occupation

Context, not a finding about this posting: of this employer's 19 green-card filings in this occupation, 100% were for a worker who already held the job.

Green-card follow-through: 100%

Of 12 labor certifications old enough to have been used, 0 expired without the employer filing the next step. Median time from filing to decision: 505 days.100% of their filings were for a worker who already held the job.Only certifications past the 180-day window are counted — recent ones cannot have expired yet.

DOL often reclassifies their job titles

The Department of Labor assigned a different occupation than this employer requested on 40% of its 15 wage determinations — against a 18% norm. The occupation sets the prevailing wage floor.Reclassification is routine and can reflect genuinely hybrid roles; it is not by itself evidence of underpayment.

Files H-1B transfers

24 transfer filings in the last year, covering 24 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

  • GTM localization: Partner with regional marketing and sales teams to localize go-to-market materials (sales decks, one-pagers, case studies, campaigns, etc.) for international markets, ensuring messaging lands with local audiences.
