The highest-paying company in 2019 pays a median salary of $170,929 — here are 9 other companies that pay the most

In addition to offering exciting perks and benefits, employers today are offering competitive compensation in order to attract top talent.

Using data from its platform, job site Glassdoor compiled a list of the 25 highest-paying companies in 2019. Looking at the salary reviews reported by employees between July 1, 2018, and June 30, 2019, Glassdoor found that tech, consulting and finance companies offer the best salaries to their staff.

Each of the companies in the top 10 ranking have a median employee salary of $148,000 or above. Cybersecurity company Palo Alto Networks, which comes in the top spot, has a median staff salary of $170,929. Those figures, according to Glassdoor, are higher than the average $73,128 base pay that most employees make in the San Francisco Bay area — the location where most of these companies are headquartered.

I wonder if left wing liebral arts schools will show all these job open ings and encourage the people who get useless degrees from them to go to a real college where you can obtain an education that will get you a real job. Then again the world needs more art history; video game; and women's studies graduiates.

wrong word.
I should’ve used ‘my research of women studies’... or better yet... maybe there should be ‘my study of women research’...

You make me laugh, there are jobs available in construction that approach Five figure salaries after factoring in overtime that will pay you to train for them. And you won’t spend ten or fifteen years paying off student loans, and you’ll likely earn a decent wage in a apprenticeship program

Sure you'll have more cash to club, but in the Bay Area you need more cash for SF clubs and it doesn't matter for the shitty San Jose ones. LOL I guess it could pay for the gas to drive to Sacramento and Reno.

As usual VH_Retard is wrong about everything. For every computer programmer, there are even more administrative positions like salesmen, marketing people, hr, hell, they even have their own IT department that supports the guys writing code...which are probably doing it in India for a fraction of the price. You're not paying a programmer 170k, you're paying a salesman 170k, or the programmers boss that doesn't touch code.

Just another reason that we all know that vh_retard is wrong about everything. Wonder what his predictions for the 2020 election are...wrong, that's what they are...wrong.

One of my daughters just got a new job with a sneaker company - $100,000 in company stock as a signing bonus & $200k annual salary. And to think I started at $1.00 an hour.

These are great numbers for a median but if you really want to see what the top talent gets in tech, start reading the teamblind forums for compensation.

You also can go to levels.fyi

At best, two of these are tier1 companies. Google doesn't blow people away with comp like it used to. Of course there are exceptions - MS/FB/Google are known to have very nice pay for the highest tier Technical Fellow ranks.

Actually, Elon Musk no longer requires a college degree to work for his company(s). Just extremely good knowledge of the position your applying for. The issue lies not with the owner, but the HR reps. They like to place useless requirements despite the owners day by day making it clear that not even they view college as a requirement to work for them.
