H-1B positions certified: three entities combined: Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (15,354), Goldman Sachs Bank USA (14,775) and Goldman Sachs Services LLC (14,335).

Layoffs are company-wide announcements and can include workers outside the U.S.

What this doesn't show
- That any visa worker replaced any laid-off worker. No public data links the two.
- Hires. Certified positions and visas issued are steps before or around hiring, not head counts.
- Immigration status. “Foreign-born” includes naturalized citizens, green card holders and others.
