METLIFE GROUP INC H-1B sponsorship data
Only 6% of this employer's H-1B petitions were for new hires — the rest renew or transfer people already on staff, so first-time sponsorship here is uncommon.

What the numbers show
Fiscal years are shown side by side above rather than as a year-over-year change. Employers sometimes appear in this federal data under a slightly different legal name from one year to the next, so comparing a single name across years can reflect a renaming rather than a real change in hiring.
Across all years, 97% of decided petitions were approved.
