What the Data Says About Synopsys, Inc.
Signature stat: WARN history
WARN history dominates: 8 notices put this employer among the 100% with the heaviest layoff filings in the corpus.
Heavy H-1B sponsor
Synopsys, Inc. in CA (Professional & Technical Services) filed 170 H-1B labor condition applications, of which 101 disclose a usable wage figure at a $174,356 disclosed median — a top-tercile sponsorship footprint in this corpus.
Shrinking LCA footprint
FY2025 filings fell 68.9% from FY2024 (45 → 14).
Top-quartile disclosed pay
Disclosed pay runs high: $174,356 median beats 81% of credible wage rows and sits above the $124,488 national median.
No OSHA record despite scale
Synopsys, Inc. sponsors 170 H-1B positions but carries no employer OSHA DART rate here — at this filing volume the gap usually reflects recordkeeping exemptions, not a verified safety judgment.
Rising disclosed medians
Disclosed medians moved from $155,381 (FY2024) to $171,539 (FY2025) (+10.4%), weighted by this employer's own LCA rows — not a company-wide raise and not role-mix adjusted.
Dual-track profile
Synopsys, Inc. is one of the rarer profiles carrying both sponsorship volume (170 H-1B LCAs) and WARN history (8 notices) in the same public record (Professional & Technical Services) in CA. Weigh those signals separately.
Where Synopsys, Inc. sits
This employer among Professional & Technical Services H-1B peers
