Best Remote Companies to Work For in 2020
In the era of high speed internet you would expect most of the companies to allow employees to work from home. However, this still doesn’t happen as often as you would think and a lot of organisations still require their workers to commute and be physically present in the offices
In fact, according to these stats, 44% of companies in the world do not allow remote working at all.
But the good news is that 16% of companies actually hire exclusively remote workers according to the same study.
The best remote companies have a very different approach than the older well established ones in the way that the management cares mostly about what team members produce at the end of the week and not whether they are at home or in the office.
Also, another secret fully remote companies know about is that they can hire the best talent in the world literally(no matter where the person is located) and eliminate expensive office location(s).
If you’re thinking of getting a new job which gives you more flexibility and a better work/life balance than look no further. We’ve carefully curated the top 22 remote companies to work for that are actively hiring right now.
They’re hiring for tech jobs, as well as talented people for marketing, customer service, project management, and others.
We have categorised the companies in descending order by
a) The size of the company in number of employees
b) The review grade on glassdoor.co.uk
c) We made sure that they offer fully remote positions
