The Leland Stanford, Jr University
The Leland Stanford, Jr University made 282 filings covering 282 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $123,796 a year. 282 of those 282 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
The Leland Stanford, Jr University filed 2 permanent labour certifications between 2026-01-09 and 2026-02-11, of which 2 were certified. That is the step an employment-based green card starts with, so this employer does sponsor them.

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.
