25 highest paying companies: Which tech co outranks Google, Facebook and Microsoft?

Tech companies snag 20 spots on Glassdoor’s ranking of 25 highest paying companies in America

Tech companies dominate Glassdoor’s ranking of the highest paying companies in the U.S., snagging 20 of the top 25 spots. But no tech company ranks higher than Juniper Networks, which pays its workers a median total compensation of $157,000.

The next-highest ranking tech company is Google, which landed at No. 5 on Glassdoor’s list with a median total compensation of $153,750.

While tech companies earned the most spots on the list, consulting firms set the high bar for compensation in Glassdoor’s report, “25 Highest Paying Companies in America for 2016.” No. 1 on the list is A.T. Kearney, which pays a median total compensation of $167,534. Strategy&, at No. 2 on the list, pays a median total compensation of $160,000.

Juniper placed third among the 25 companies, while McKinsey & Company ranked fourth with a median total compensation of $155,000.

Glassdoor’s total compensation figures include base salary as well as other forms of pay, such as commissions, tips and bonuses. The data comes from U.S.-based employees who voluntarily shared their compensation on Glassdoor’s website during the past year. Companies considered for Glassdoor’s report must have received at least 50 salary reports by U.S-based employees during the 12-month time frame.

“Salaries are sky-high at consulting companies due to ‘barriers of entry’ in this field, which refers to employers wanting top consultants to have personal contacts, reputations and specialized skills and knowledge,” said Andrew Chamberlain, Glassdoor chief economist, in a statement. “In technology, we continue to see unprecedented salaries as the war for talent is still very active, largely due to the ongoing shortage of highly skilled workers needed.”
