Future of Life Institute
Future of Life Institute made 3 filings covering 3 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $175,000 a year. 3 of those 3 state a minimum and no maximum, which is what an employer is required to file — it is the floor it is bound to, not a salary offered.
Green-card sponsorship
Future of Life Institute has filed no permanent labour certifications in this release. That is the first step of an employment-based green card, so on this data there is no sign it sponsors one — though a release covers a fiscal year, and an employer that sponsored earlier would not appear here.
What it filed, by role and place
| Occupation | Where | Level | Wage year | Filings | Positions | Median | Prevailing |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Political Scientists | Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV | Level IV | 2025-26 | 1 | 1 | $185,120 | $173,035 |
| Social Scientists and Related Workers, All Other | New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ | Level IV | 2025-26 | 1 | 1 | $175,000 | $120,203 |
| Social Scientists and Related Workers, All Other | San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont, CA | Level II | 2025-26 | 1 | 1 | $117,000 | $98,696 |
A wage is shown against the prevailing wage for the library year the filing itself cites, not the year current today — measured against the wrong year, a correctly-filed wage reads as underpaid.
Tell me when this employer files again
