Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the beneficiary would be employed in a primarily managerial or executive capacity. The Director found, and the AAO agreed, that the company's staffing levels were insufficient to relieve the beneficiary from performing day-to-day operational tasks, meaning the position was more akin to a first-line supervisor than a qualifying manager or executive.
