H-1B sponsorship profile: PQ Corporation. Across U.S. Department of Labor LCA disclosures, PQ Corporation filed 7 Labor Condition Applications covering 7 H-1B worker positions between fiscal year 2023 and fiscal year 2025. The employer’s DOL certification rate sits at 85.7% (6 certified of 7 filed), a useful proxy for how cleanly their prevailing-wage attestations pass the Labor Department’s preliminary review before USCIS adjudication.

Compensation spread. Offered wages on PQ Corporation’s H-1B petitions range from $85,727 at the low end to $107,500 at the high end, with a petition-weighted average of $95,941. That range reflects the mix of occupations the company sponsors, led by Process Engineer (2 petitions at $85,727 avg), followed by Plant Process Engineer and Senior FP&A Analyst. H-1B salaries reported on LCAs must meet or exceed the DOL prevailing wage for the role and worksite, so the spread also tracks wage-level geography and seniority.

Geographic footprint. PQ Corporation is headquartered in Malvern, PA under NAICS code 32518, and places H-1B workers across 3 states, most heavily in PA, IL, CA. Combined, these signals give a granular view of how one employer uses the H-1B program, volume, approval cleanliness, wage posture, and where the jobs actually sit on the map.

Where PQ Corporation ranks. By H-1B petition volume, PQ Corporation is #21,197 of 119,880 employers nationally and #648 of 3,282 employers headquartered in PA. Both ranks are computed live from the same underlying petition counts, not a separate estimate.
