Ranking High Paying Remote Companies<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It’s no secret U.S. workers want to work from home. In fact, working fully from home\u2014without any onsite responsibilities or field travel requirements\u2014is the preferred work style of 70% of workers<\/a>. Virtual careers are so desired by employees that having little to no access to remote jobs is their primary workplace concern, even ahead of inadequate salary or benefits and few opportunities for advancement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seeking higher levels of work-life balance or integration through employment in flexible, remote jobs, however, doesn’t mean home-based professionals must sacrifice other career goals, like boosts in income or career opportunities. To prove the top-level earnings possible via fully remote jobs with remote enabled companies, we examined a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) report that analyzed 2021 median annual wages data for 450 U.S.-based companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

John Stensholt and Nate Rattner of the WSJ used income source data from MyLogIQ and employee data from S&P Global Market Intelligence to prepare their findings. “Since about 2018, U.S. publicly traded companies have been required to identify the median worker from their global workforce and disclose that person\u2019s compensation, including overtime and benefits,” according to Stenholt and Rattner. Their report found that median salaries of workers at the majority of big U.S. companies are higher than pre-pandemic levels. Plus, top median earners with these businesses brought home nearly $300,000 in 2021. These companies formed the foundation of our high paying remote companies investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
