Type of Employer ( Profile of the Employer) query

I have been offered a new position as a Senior Network Engineer in a landscaping firm. They have over 7 sites with a lot of Networking equipment for me to manage but I am confused whether I should take it or not . What are the chances that H1 might get denied since the company is landscaping firm ? does the profile of a company really matter ? Any insight would be really appreciated .

Thank you

that shouldnt matter...what matters is if the company is genuine and if they are able to pay you as per LCA and they have a good background.

Hire a good attorney to do the case and you should be good. I know of atleast one case of an IT person hired by a timber cutting company and he did just fine with H1 and green card.

Main things are to make sure that they have real need in your field of expertise and that they are paying you as well as any other industry for your services.

How is it any different from someone working in a bank's IT department? You should be fine as long as your profile is Network Engineer and not landscape specialist.
