Show HN: Visa Explorer – Salaries, lawyers, companies of all H-1B in the USA
- negrit 11y agoHello everyone. I quickly built this little tool based on public records provided by the government. The amount of information they provide is incredible. There are no explicit names, but for small startup or exec position it is easy to guess who is who. As far as I know this is the biggest LCA database so far.
- ma2rten 11y agoThanks this is way better than existing sites. I did notice that searching for Google gives you 5 different entities that are all Google.
- negrit 11y agoYes I am still cleaning the data. It's all unbelievable the amount of crap you can find in the public records. I have a lot of duplicates unfortunately. Down the road, I'm planning on providing a couple of cool charts/map about trends and evolutions.
- djb_hackernews 11y agoA few things I'd be interested in: - ratio of LCAs to total permanent full time employees. This will show which companies are really leaning on the H1-B visa (I'd estimate my "household name" software company is at about 50%) - Source of prevailing wage. Interestingly employers don't have to use the BOL published data and can self report. I'd be interested to see how many self report. - The average delta between prevailing wage and salary per employer/job title. - A way to search by geographic region.
- aceperry 11y agoExcellent ideas. Hope to see these things soon.
- deleted 11y ago[deleted]
- Serow225 11y agoFor search result of a company name, can you sort the results descending by # of LCA? this would put the most likely true result of top, I think. I also noticed that the sort buttons (for salary) behave backwards of what I'd intuitively expect? Would it be possible to auto-merge likely duplicate company names? Great job, keep it up!! :)
- negrit 11y agoI'm currently coding both feature. :)
- joshz 11y agoCheck out Open Refine. Has a feature that clusters similar strings and unifies. I remember last time I looked at this data set... 4 letter acronyms spelled 12 different ways, it's unbelievably messy.

- seanp2k2 11y agoAny plans to open-source this on Github and accept pull requests?
- lmz 11y agoI thought clicking "Jobs" would lead me to something grouped by job title...
- lukasm 11y agoCan I find the highest salaries?
- iagooar 11y agoTake a look at Airbnb, Data Scientist. This person has been doing >$1.000.000 a year...
- philsnow 11y agowhat does "status: withdrawn" mean ?
- refurb 11y agoIt means the petition was withdrawn. My guess is that that person left the company.
- negrit 11y agoI actually think it means they decide to no make go further with the LCA. Like they decided to finally not hire the employee or the employee decided to not work for this company anymore.
- refurb 11y agoActually that makes more sense. It is possible to be working on another visa while a company files the LCA for you (TN, L, visas, etc), but it's probably less likely than a new H1-B hire.
- sjg007 11y agoThey probably misfiled the LCA at 1m and re filed at 100k.
- lukasm 11y agoI've seen that. It's either mistake or he sold the shares.
- pkaye 11y agoGreat implementation. I've seen the raw data before but never had the web development skills to execute on this idea. Can you also add a query where once you select a company and year, it groups by title and gives average salary.
- myth_buster 11y agoThanks for this! I'm currently looking at opportunities and this would help immensely during negotiations. Would it be possible to search for role + location instead of company first? Essentially the refine functionality you provide on company's yearly page [0] to be at the root. You can perhaps make state or city mandatory so that it doesn't hit your backend hard. [0]: http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/***/2015 http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/***/2015
- Eridrus 11y agoTheir data hadn't been updated in a while, but http://www.salar.ly/ http://www.salar.ly/ has that functionality
- visadoor 11y agoTry http://visadoor.com http://visadoor.com You can also search Green Card PERMs.
- negrit 11y agoYes, This is definitively something I'm going to provide.
- myth_buster 11y agoExcellent.
- wodzu 11y agoMay I ask which public records did you use? Thanks, this looks awesome!
- pshin45 11y agoVery impressive. I'm organizing an Immigration-themed "Startup Weekend" event[1] happening next week (in SF), and I think I'll be sharing this with participants there as an example of what can be done. [1] http://www.up.co/communities/usa/san-francisco/startup-weekend/5961 http://www.up.co/communities/usa/san-francisco/startup-weeke... (Use promo code "hn" for 70% off)
- negrit 11y agoDefinitively. I'm going to provide an API pretty soon. Too bad it wont be ready for this week end.
- hlake 11y agoGreat work. Impressive little tool.
- smrtinsert 11y agoThis is a great tool. I hope it helps every H1-B fight for the skills they are worth.
- bradleyjg 11y agoNeat project. My brother, who is an immigration lawyer and presumably somewhere on the list, asks for a way to search by attorney.
- motti_s 11y agoTry this: http://data.jobsintech.io/lawyers/<last http://data.jobsintech.io/lawyers/<last name>-<first name>-<city>-<state> Example: http://data.jobsintech.io/lawyers/maranci-daniel-boston-ma http://data.jobsintech.io/lawyers/maranci-daniel-boston-ma
- micro_cam 11y agoInstead of plotting a count per exact salary could you plot count per binned salary? Ie instead of plotting 1 at 105k and 1 at 107k plot 2 at 100-110k. As it is the plots aren't particularly useful for comparing the distribution of salaries between companies etc.
- paxtonab 11y agocan you add functionality to search by job title other than as a filter? great tool though!
- negrit 11y agoYes, work in progress!
- paxtonab 11y agoWow, you aren't kidding when you say Netflix pays well!
- _dark_matter_ 11y agoOh my god, $350k for a senior software engineer? I'm absolutely floored.
- whoiskevin 11y agoReally not that much when you take out the taxes, food and housing premium of the area. That is what should floor you as well
- untog 11y agoIt is still a lot of money.
- chucksmash 11y agoYou are utterly and completely incorrect. $30,000 a month is a fantastic salary. No ifs, ands or buts.
- rgawdzik 11y agoYes, considering that is the equivalent of a minimum wage yearly salary every two weeks.
- stefap2 11y agoMonthly Gross Pay $29,166.67 Federal Withholding $8,195.61 Social Security $1,808.33 Medicare $422.92 California $2,831.70 SDI $262.50 Net Monthly Pay $15,645.61
- frankc 11y agoit's better than that because social security tax will be capped four months in.
- tixocloud 11y agoIt's a really clean implementation. However, it took me a while to understand what the website was all about (wasn't sure what LCAs are, etc.) One improvement could be making the messaging more accessible and less technical. We are interested in an API and would love to hear your plans about it. Will shoot you an email :)
- negrit 11y agoThanks. Can you shoot me an email theo@jobsintech.io ?
- Buetol 11y agoWould love to have a dump of the data: Every time people scrape these data, they have to clean it again and again.
- Scoundreller 11y agoWhat's being used on the front-end to display the tables and pages and the back-end to store all the info? Time required to create? Other fun details? (I ask because I have another dataset I want to work on recreating online in a searchable manner)
- negrit 11y agoFront End: twitter bootstrap. Back End: RoR+postgreSQL I roughly spent a week on it. At first I was cleaning and moving some data around with RoR but it didn't seemed right to me. Then I started poking around with postgreSQL and once you get a hold of it, it's super powerful and does most of the job. Use indexes... on fairly large datasets it really makes a difference.
- pratikch 11y agoLet me know if you need a helping hand. :)
- kelukelugames 11y agoThank you for doing this! Any tips on how I can learn and better at using twitter bootstrap? So far I've only figured out how to load the basic template.
- theflork 11y agoVery cool site! I found similar data a while back, but nowhere near this organized/pretty to look at. It helped me make the decision of NOT taking a job that I had a hunch was a lowball offer. Does anyone know if companies are allowed to include the bonus $ in the 'salary' figure in these LCAs?
- untog 11y agoWeird seeing yourself listed on a site like this! I imagine my co-workers could find me if they were so motivated. (this isn't a criticism of the site - just an interesting side effect of this kind of data transparency)
- vosper 11y agoYeah, it was odd to see myself listed in there, too. Although, at the moment, anyone who's interested enough to look at the H1B notice posted discretely on the wall of the kitchen at my office will see my salary, since it's my visa being transferred to our new parent company. It was a strange feeling seeing the job details and the salary listed on the communal kitchen wall, and realising it was my job and my salary.
- lnkmails 11y agoLast time I said this I was down voted. This kinda transparency needs to be there for citizens and residents too who don't have to go through LCA process.
- vosper 11y agoI've always been in favour of transparency around salary and compensation. So, I'm not hugely perturbed by this. It's a bit strange when it's done piecemeal, though, and without your knowledge - I jokingly asked my boss "is that my job listed on the wall, or are you hiring someone to replace me?"
- untog 11y agoAbsolutely, but on a personal level it leads to some inequality - my co-workers know how much I earn, but I have no idea how much they earn.
- tdees40 11y agoThere's a software engineer at Google making $1.1M. That is all.
- tdees40 11y agoNevermind, there's one making $1.5M. I just stopped looking too early.
- vdaniuk 11y agoI understand that highly compensated engineers get to solve unique challenges on grand scale, enjoy their jobs and are generally content with their professional positions. But I just can't stop wishing for those engineers using their immense knowledge, authority and financial resources to bootstrap own tech companies and improve the diversity of the tech ecosystem. They don't need venture backing, they don't have pressing need to compromise and have the means to experiment with new business models, whether it is open source, open-* or social enterprises.
- dman 11y agoIf youre well paid to solve exactly the kind of problems youre interested in working on, its easy to see why some would prefer working at Google / Facebook. Most technical people I know who have left to start their own business have shared that they now spend most of their time building the organization rather than creating technology. Some appear to enjoy this organizational hacking, while others have a tinge of regret about it.
- floppydisk 11y agoPushing back a little bit, not everyone is cut out for the startup lifestyle and the problems they're solving may not be solvable without the scale of a place like Google. Rather than encourage them to get out, I'd love to see them publish more about what they're doing, what challenges they're tackling, and how they've gone about solving them. That information gets pushed into the general ecosystem and other people then can run with it and iterate on it quickly. I.E. Google publishing the big table papers that became HDFS/Hadoop and the entire open source "big data" ecosystem that spawned from that.
- xixixao 11y agoHmm, was hoping this would show the denied percentage, but the "denied" column doesn't corresponds to reality, not sure what it's supposed to represent.
- la6470 11y agoWhat about the thousands that companies bring with L1s and B1s?
- Lawtonfogle 11y agoCheck out Wal Mart during year 2002. Either there is some interesting story or the data has a problem. Average salary goes up by about 50 times before dropping back down by about as much the next year. Edit: Being there are so many Wal Marts, I mean this one. http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/wal-mart-associates-inc http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/wal-mart-associates-inc
- maxcasey 11y agoWhere? http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/walmart-com http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/walmart-com Don't see 2002
- Lawtonfogle 11y agoThe other Wal Mart. http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/wal-mart-associates-inc http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/wal-mart-associates-inc Actually, there are quite a few Wal Marts.
- tty7 11y agoPharmacist $79,040 Pharmacist $7,904,000 Looks to be just due to errors in decimal place.
- alistairSH 11y agoInteresting to see the salary ranges at my employer. With similar titles, the range is quite large, even within the same physical location. And modifiers like "senior" or "principal" don't appear to correlate with the listed salary.
- tdees40 11y agoI work in finance, and browsing this list reinforces the assumption that people on H-1Bs are just cheap labor for employers. Most people on this list whose positions I can determine with confidence seem to make 10-20% too little.
- g4m8i7 11y agoCheck Netflix. Most of their H1Bs are making far greater than prevailing wage for their positions.
- rand334 11y agoYeah, is this data right? Why do they have Software and UX people making over $250k?
- ojbyrne 11y agoIt's fairly common knowledge in Silicon Valley that Netflix salaries are insane.
- chrisper 11y agoIsn't that because they hire a very small amount of very experienced people?
- zerr 11y agoOr maybe because of their high turnover, to compensate the risk of what is known as "the culture of fear" there.
- beamatronic 11y agoFor $300k+ I'll take on some risk.
- 11y ago
- btbuildem 11y agoSo many ways to misspell "microsoft"!
- TazeTSchnitzel 11y agoAnd "ibm corporation", too!
- ckamin5 11y agoDo these numbers include bonus/stock or is it just base?
- bitsweet 11y agowhen you fill out the LCA, you only supply base - not total compensation
- tomkinstinch 11y agoNicely made. It would be helpful to view the information grouped by job title, with summary statistics on salary across all employers, possibly also with standardized numbers that include adjustments for differences in regional cost of living for the various worksite locations (via either BLS numbers or whatever wolfram alpha uses to get equivalent salaries for other cities). It's also a little depressing to see salaries this high (I'm at a non-profit).
- xacaxulu 11y agoIt's a little exciting to see salaries this high (I'm at a for-profit).
- pdx 11y agoI would love to be able to query the whole dataset at once, instead of company by company. For example, I'd like to see everything in $city, and then be able to sort that by salary or job description.
- negrit 11y agoIt's in the pipeline :)

- bkjelden 11y agoDoes anyone know how accurate employers are legally required to be with these? Is this just base salary, or are they allowed to include cash bonuses, stock bonuses, etc?

- Urbanxassassin 11y agoI bet the bought an employee and his product.
- pjc50 11y agoThe salary information is potentially very useful in negotiations ..
- djb_hackernews 11y agoI'd be a little careful with that as it may end up anchoring your salary. The prevailing wage may not reflect the actual prevailing wage (which is why the H1-B visa is attractive to some employers) and if companies aren't paying much more than the inaccurately low prevailing wage then you may end up short changing yourself.
- Chinmayh 11y agoLooks like visas are made for Indian companies and not american companies http://data.jobsintech.io/companies http://data.jobsintech.io/companies
- visadoor 11y agoShameless plugin. Also checkout http://visadoor.com http://visadoor.com, which provides the same information and more.
- mattdotc 11y agoThanks, this is a very good job so far. I do have one question, though. What is your reasoning for having the upward-facing arrow /\ serve as the descending sort and downward-facing \/ as ascending? It feels backwards to me and a bit counter intuitive.
- negrit 11y agoI was thinking from the top salaries to the bottom.
- aquadrop 11y agoI was confused by this as well, usually it's the other way around. I think regular reasoning is from largest (widest part of arrow) to smallest. Thanks for the site though :)
- rMBP 11y agoThe asc/desc triangles bugs me too. Arrows would indicate order (⬆︎ = rising, lowest to highest). Triangles aren't arrows and should IMO be the reversed, like a pyramid (▲ = ascending, smallest on top). I just noticed HN uses triangles as arrows for upvotes, whereas Reddit has the arrows.
- mattdotc 11y agoGood to know I'm not alone in this reasoning. I've seen the flip-flopped behavior on other sites, and it is a pet peeve of mine.
- rMBP 11y agoWebsites are one thing. It really gets annoying when different applications in an operating system "can't agree" on what to use. I've seen both in Debian/Gnome apps, but that's kind of to be expected from (F)OSS software as rules for UI are less strict/not very well defined.
- jamram82 11y agoI would like to sound a caution, if you are using this data for any kind of salary negotiation. - LCA for a candidate is filed only once per company as long as he is in the same job role. Factos like getting promoted to Senior X, recent pay-hikes would not get reflected in LCA. - Wage listed may not include bonus, and other compensation. So dont leave money on the table while negotiating. Crosscheck with glassdoor. - Companies also go through frequent job title changes, so it is possible you might miss more dataset hidden in other job titles. - When you are looking for wage related idea, only latest year matters. - Some people have mentioned earlier that H1B have 10-20% less salary. My personal experience says otherwise. There is always bound to be variation even among non H1B. Finally - I am not a lawyer, and none of it are legal or professional advice.
- klipt 11y ago> Wage listed may not include bonus, and other compensation. Yeah, once you factor in RSUs and bonus my actual salary is about 40% higher than what was listed on my LCA.
- conanbatt 11y agoFor all the H-1B is "cheap labor complains" the fact that this information is public is horrible. Its a very asymetric relationship with your colleagues. If this were really meant to be about transparent controls, it should be tied to the wages of the other employees. Cant believe there isnt a single comment about privacy issues regarding this here. EDIT: after scrolling a bit I did find some. Kudos to that conversation, though this has to be off-putting. The OP is also playing with people's information. He hasnt put his next to it, for example. Not that it would have been enough.
- negrit 11y agoPeople who know me, worked with me, ... can find me easily in this database and checkout how much I was paid.
- conanbatt 11y agoI would find it sensitive to literally 100ks of people to make an effort to anonymize the data. If you don't see the ethical hazard of something like this, who is making the site, who is going to? The legislators that already passed the law?
- mathattack 11y agoThis information is all publicly available already. Nothing new other than the interface.
- conanbatt 11y agoIf you think a site like this has no effect because the information is already there, you should think its absolutely useless. But its not, because it does have an effect. And that effect is negative for a lot of people who are being treated different for their nationality.
- deleted 11y ago[deleted]
- snowwrestler 11y agoHow would you distinguish this from visadoor.com? What does it do better? (Not trying to challenge or insult--trying to learn.)
- negrit 11y agoI have a lot more data(millions more) and a really clean&easy UI :)
- gdilla 11y agoEven though this is anonymous, at big companies like Apple, you can see executive salaries with specific enough job titles that it's easy with a little LinkedIn sleuthing to know the person's identity. http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/apple-inc/2013?order_salary=desc http://data.jobsintech.io/companies/apple-inc/2013?order_sal... - you know the person is a foreigner, and you know about when they began their job.
- oimaz 11y agoWow, immigrants have no privacy in this country. Imagine, if US citizen salaries were made public like this. How would that make you feel?
- forgotAgain 11y agoPublic employees salaries are public records in the US. Many local news publications will publish a searchable list.
- oimaz 11y agoThe salaries of private company employees are being listed here
- forgotAgain 11y agoYour question concerned US citizens not public / private employment.
- cmdrfred 11y agoThis needs to be transparent like it or not. These companies are arguing that there isn't any talent for them to hire so they have to get someone from overseas. If this information wasn't publicly available they would be paying some of these guys 9 dollars an hour.
- conanbatt 11y agoThat is senseless, you dont need citizen control to check that the salaries are prevailing wages, that is a job that can be done by the government with multiple different agencies at a very low level of cost or risk. Also, it doesnt make sense because it doesnt include US employees salary of the same companies which is what you need to make that fair/unfair comparison. Even worse, the immigrants themselves can't make that check, which is the most important one you need. The fact that this information is available to citizens is a purely exclusion measure, that makes clear that immigrant workers don't have the same rights as US citizens.

- stickydink 11y agoBe aware this shows the salary as it was when the visa was applied for; which is often many months before the visa (end supposedly, the job) begins. I found myself on here (the only H-1B at my company), and the salary is almost $20k less than what I was being paid by the time the visa stamp actually arrived, and $80k less than today (3 years in). As frustrating as actually going through the US immigration system is, I do appreciate that they put out some good data on it. I'm currently going through PERM (and again, frustrations, audits, and personal nightmares aside), it's great to see that I can look at all the processed applications from just 1-2 days ago - and see details on company/role. There are plenty of sites that the ugly/difficult data that govt puts out itself, and makes it a bit easier to navigate; one example I've used is dolstats.com
- brentoids 11y agoIs it a good indicator of what the company pays entry level positions if the company mostly hires for one specific job. So would you use the Google, Microsoft, etc data as a good indicator of the average start salary of an entry level dev today?
- deleted 11y ago[deleted]
- lobster_johnson 11y agoH-1B salaries are actually "pegged" according to the title of each position; they call this the minimum or prevailing wage, and it's specific to an area. For example, if a company is hiring a "senior software developer" in NYC, and the US government considers $120k to be the prevailing salary of a senior software developer in NYC, then the company must pay that person at least that much; Google can't pay any less, even if it wanted to. The wage database is public [1]. So that gives you the minimum, at least. [1] http://www.flcdatacenter.com/OesWizardStart.aspx http://www.flcdatacenter.com/OesWizardStart.aspx

- parennoob 11y agoH1B here. Two small caveats with these data sets. 1. They may be incomplete. My position (2010) does not show up at all here, though it does on one of the other similar salary trackers. 2. They do not reflect raises. My salary is ~14k more than my starting salary over 3 years.
- moey 11y agoFor all the nay sayers, this information provided is for the good of all. If a company declares they can't find talent here in the states and want to hire from outside this information helps: - Makes sure the company doesn't just go hunting for cheaper labor overseas and bring people here for 40k - Allows the international employee to view salaries to see if they're getting a fair offer - Helps U.S. Citizens keep there job/pay because the company can't go higher other people for 40k.
- conanbatt 11y ago1) To prevent hiring people "below 40k" you just make it so you dont pass H1B's for "below 40k". 2) International employee does not normally know something like this exists, and I assure you the Government website is not made with such a goal in mind. Not to mention that even in that case the salaries provided here have all kinds of inexact data (because it doesnt show stock compensation) 3) Any country can make the immigration policy they desire. Having this information public denotes a second-class citizen measure. This would not be acceptable if, for example, employees from other states in the US had to do this to "protect the state's jobs and make sure everyone gets a fair salary".
- nocman 11y ago"Having this information public denotes a second-class citizen measure" Actually it denotes "not being a citizen at all"? It's got nothing to do with being second class. If you are here on an H1B, you're not a citizen. A google search shows: "The H1B visa classification permits a foreign national to work in the United States for a temporary period". You can debate whether the information on this site should be public or not, but it is not reasonable to think that a foreign national should have all the same rights as a citizen. I would not expect to have all the rights of a citizen if I went to work in a foreign country either.
- moey 11y ago"I would not expect to have all the rights of a citizen if I went to work in a foreign country either." Your expectations are accurate.

I wonder what those are about.
- sagivo 11y agothat's the next big thing
- bankim 11y agoNicely done. This is useful to gauge salary levels in your current company and also what companies in similar domain are paying in the area. There is another website http://dolstats.com/ http://dolstats.com/ that gathers data from PERM applications. I've found it useful for comparing salaries when looking for new job.

- montz1 11y agoThat's cool. There's a bunch of site that have this data. http://salarytalk.org/h1bwage http://salarytalk.org/h1bwage has similar information on the data set.

- S4M 11y agoSuch a salary in academia is really incredible. No way this is not just a typo?
- refurb 11y agoFor a post-doc? That's likely $43,000.
- unethical_ban 11y agoDefinitely a typo. A programmer at my company doesn't make 7,600,000.

- zkhalique 11y agoI didn't know salaries of visa holders are public information!
- bitfoolish 11y agoAccording to this site, my company has LCAs with salary 12% to 26% MORE than what I'm making for the same title! I didn't know I was getting screwed like this. I was happy with my job until I saw this site today. I'm not sure what to do now. Should I tell my boss about this and ask for a big raise this year? How would they react if I showed this data to them and demanded that my salary at least match these numbers?
- gusmd 11y agoSorry for that. I don't think anyone can predict how your boss would react to such demand. That said, it might be that those colleagues making more than you do simply offer more value to the company, or were better negotiators when discussing their job offers.

- Nemant 11y agoSearch for "Amazon" gives me 87 different companies
- princetontiger 11y agoDid anyone check out netflix? You can really see salaries spike in 2012/2013 time frame. Is this due to the massive wave of VC-fund companies now competing for talent?
- iagooar 11y agoHow is it, that in the US people earn between 20k and 200k this easily? It's just insane...
- the_economist 11y agoThe cost of living is extremely high in many of the places where people earn these wages.
- cm2012 11y agoNot 10x higher, though. Also cost of living is now always matched by median income. For instance, in NYC the median household income is 50k - the same as the rest of the nation.
- AstroChimpHam 11y agoIs there a way to remove "withdrawn" applications from averages? There are a lot of decimal point errors there, which skew the average way up.
- ajays 11y agoYou need to dedupe the companies better. I just searched for "LinkedIn", and found several matches: 1 linkedin, ltd. 2 linkedin, inc. 3 linkedin, corp. 4 linkedin ltd, inc. 5 linkedin corporation
- largote 11y agoTN Visas for Canadians and Mexicans seem to be missing, even though H1B1s and E3s are shown.
- negrit 11y agoYeah, they are not the same class.
- mathattack 11y agoAre we overrunning the server? Seems like it's gotten slow. At first indication the #s seem pretty accurate for where I've worked, though they only capture base salary. (No bonus, equity, etc)
- NonEUCitizen 11y agoAre L-1 visa salaries publicly available? I know some Engineers who've come in on L-1 visas.
- sjg007 11y agoWell damn. This really tells you how hot the market is and how much information asymmetry there is in job negotiation: it is interesting to see the variance in each company at the same prevailing wage.
- gfarkas 11y agoI recently started toying with the idea of moving to the US so this seems immensely useful. By the way, does anyone know a good blog post or something on the process of applying for H1B jobs? I don't have a clear picture on how the whole thing works at this pont.
