Research Foundation of CUNY
Research Foundation of CUNY made 29 filings covering 29 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $80,000 a year. 29 of those 29 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
Research Foundation of CUNY filed 1 permanent labour certification between 2026-05-04 and 2026-05-04, of which 1 was 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.
