## Who's Leading the Pack

Amazon dominated the quarter with **2,008 approved H-1B beneficiaries** across its primary entity (Amazon Com Services LLC), making it the single largest H-1B sponsor in the dataset. Rounding out the top five:

1. **Amazon Com Services LLC** — 2,008
2. **Tata Consultancy Services** — 1,518
3. **Microsoft Corporation** — 1,179
4. **Infosys Limited** — 1,139
5. **Google LLC** — 1,040

Apple (983), Cognizant (980), Meta (698), Tesla (635), and Walmart (629) rounded out the top 10.

Notably, Amazon's footprint is even larger than the top-line number suggests — Amazon Web Services (331), Amazon Development Center (224), and Amazon Data Services (98) also appear separately in the top 100, bringing Amazon's combined approvals to roughly **2,661** for the quarter.

## The Bigger Picture

The top 100 employers combined for **25,328 approved beneficiaries** in just one quarter — a significant volume that reflects continued heavy reliance on the H-1B program across tech, consulting, finance, and beyond.

Consulting and IT services firms remain major players: TCS, Infosys, Cognizant, Capgemini (459), Accenture (458), and HCL America (410) all placed in the top 20. This matters for workers at staffing-model employers, where H-1B petitions are often tied to specific client placements.

Financial services also showed up strongly: JPMorgan Chase (628), Citibank (310), Fidelity Investments (404), and Ernst & Young (380) all made the top 25.

A few notable names further down the list: Nvidia (343), Walmart's entry reflects its growing tech workforce, and newer-economy companies like Databricks (81), Stripe (69), and DoorDash (99) signal continued H-1B reliance among high-growth startups.

## What This Data Actually Tells You

The H-1B Employer Data Hub shows **approved beneficiaries** — meaning petitions that were filed and approved during the quarter. A high approval count signals an employer that is both willing to sponsor H-1B workers and has been successful in doing so. It does not tell you about denial rates or the total number of petitions filed.

The data is publicly searchable at [uscis.gov/tools/reports-and-studies/h-1b-employer-data-hub](https://www.uscis.gov/tools/reports-and-studies/h-1b-employer-data-hub).

## What You Should Do

If you're an H-1B worker or F-1 student on OPT looking for sponsors, use this list as a research starting point — these are employers with proven track records of H-1B approvals. Cross-reference with open job postings at these companies and ask recruiters directly about their sponsorship policies. If you're already employed at one of these firms, this data confirms your employer is actively engaged in the H-1B program, which is useful context during renewal or transfer discussions.
