Populus Group LLC

Populus Group LLC made 274 filings covering 274 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $124,800 a year. 274 of those 274 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

Populus Group LLC filed 23 permanent labour certifications between 2025-11-28 and 2026-06-29, of which 22 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.

Where these workers are placed

Filings that name a secondary entity — a client site the worker works at rather than the employer's own premises.
