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, 99% of decided petitions were approved.
Most petitions list BENTONVILLE, AR.
