University Corporation for Atmospheric Research
University Corporation for Atmospheric Research made 44 filings covering 44 positions in this release. Across them it committed to pay at least a median of $105,036 a year. 43 of those 44 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

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.

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