Blackrock averaged $143,168 and Franklin Templeton averaged $144,036 across certified FY2025 filings. Median offered wage was $138,200 and $141,100 respectively.

How is this comparison calculated?

Both figures come from DOL LCA disclosure records for FY2025, filtered to certified petitions with annual wages between $30,000 and $1,000,000. Employer legal-entity name variants are grouped before counting (Blackrock: 24 name variants; Franklin Templeton: 8). An LCA is a required step before an H-1B petition, not the petition itself, so these are filings rather than USCIS approvals.
