The highest paid department median salary ($178,177) is for engineers. An Apple employee says, “Good salary, cash bonuses and RSUs. Stock is high performing.”
In order to qualify for this list, Comparably limited the list to companies which had more than 500 employees and had at least 50 ratings from employees between Sept. 12, 2017 and Sept. 12, 2018. In order to rank these companies, Comparably considered both pay and how satisfied employees said they were with their pay.
Comparably currently tracks about 10,000 companies, it says. Google is number one on the list with a median salary of $161,409.
