I know there's companies that pay their employees the same amount independently of location (ie, an employee with skill level N in San Francisco earns the same amount as another employee with skill level N in Atlanta, Mexico City, Vancouver, Bogota, etc).

I'd be very interested in a site that compiles those companies.

Even then, you have to email the site owner to ask them to refer you. You don't see the job posting, at least not for the job I clicked on.

same! This is worse than paywall. If I don't have a Google account what am I supposed to do? I know it's hard to imagine people who don't have Google accounts but I can assure you that they exist. More importantly, it should be a choice not a requirement!

>the limited number of employers who sponsored work visas

I find the imprecise language that gets thrown around on visas unhelpful. My understanding is that a US company can try to sponsor your H1-B if you're already on OPT, but the government holds a visa lottery process, so the decision about whether or not you ultimately get it is random and not up to the company. Similarly, once you have an H1-B you can then transfer it to another employer, but this isn't a 'sponsorship'- this is a visa transfer, a completely separate legal process. Finally there's sponsorship for an actual Green Card. Just because a company does 1 of these 3 things, doesn't necessarily mean that they do the other 2.

I think it'd be helpful if people in the industry used more precise language and specified what exactly they're looking for from the companies, sorry to be nitpicky. I just have this conversation a lot. I don't know what specific legal steps the companies on this guy's website do

It looks exactly like a scam site to me. Some information to get gullible people to start clicking and giving away information, but not anything actionable or verifiable. I wouldn't register an account, let alone use a google login or anything similar.
