Note: Sometimes the salary ranges look abonormally high. It could be because an LCA is filed improperly selecting wrong pay period (like selecting per biweekly instead of per year for the salary). For Example filing an LCA with $120,000 as wage per biweekly could result in that kind of abnormally high salaries. Generally companies withdraw those LCAs and correct the mistake by filing a new LCA.
