Tesla averaged $152,386 and NVIDIA averaged $188,427 across certified FY2025 filings. Median offered wage was $149,636 and $186,472 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 (Tesla: 6 name variants; NVIDIA: 1). An LCA is a required step before an H-1B petition, not the petition itself, so these are filings rather than USCIS approvals.
