Who sponsors more H-1B visas, Google or Meta?

Google filed more, 8,161 certified H-1B LCAs in FY2025 versus 5,824 for Meta.

Which pays more on H-1B filings, Google or Meta?

Google averaged $186,733 and Meta averaged $206,239 across certified FY2025 filings. Median offered wage was $186,000 and $204,000 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 (Google: 5 name variants; Meta: 11). An LCA is a required step before an H-1B petition, not the petition itself, so these are filings rather than USCIS approvals.
