25 Highest Paying Companies In America By Glassdoor by P0intBlank(m): 7:17pm On Apr 21, 2016
Basically, if you work for one of these 25 companies, you’re going to pull in a six-figure salary and probably some pretty nice perks, although the report doesn’t look at that. So let’s dive in and see where – and how – employees are making the substantial money this year.

Where did Glassdoor get this information? From "salary reports at companies in which employees have anonymously and voluntarily shared both their base pay and other forms of compensation (i.e. commissions, tips, bonuses, etc.) over the past year."
The Highest Paying Companies

Out of the 25 companies on Glassdoor’s list, 20 are in the technology sector. So if your skills rank high on the geek scale, you could end up living out what your classmates may have said about you in high school: “One day we’ll probably be working for her anyway.”

The top-paying company on the list isn’t a technology firm; it’s a consulting business. A.T. Kearney pays a median salary of $143,620. Add in bonuses, and somebody at the middle of the pay scale can plan to make $167,534 (median means half the employees make more than that). The second highest is also a consulting company, Strategy&, which has a total median salary and bonuses of $160,000. Coming in third for the same total compensation calculation is a technology company, Juniper Networks, which pays $157,000. Consultants McKinsey & Company come in fourth, with $155,000.

Google is fifth on the list, with median total compensation of $153,750, and we’ve all heard about the crazy amazing perks that come with a job there

Are you a consultant?

Out of the top 4, McKinsey & Co is in Nigeria. Although, Strategy& is a subsidiary of PwC, the assurance(consulting) unit does most if not all of the consulting work in the biggest of the Big4 in Nigeria. Working in McKinsey pays a lot, both monetary and career wise not forgetting prestige cool. Most Fortune 500 firms have former McKinsey's executives as their CEO, CFO, Chairman, COO etc. An example is Tidjane Thiam of Credit Suisse.

A Nairalander once tried McKinsey, here is his story as narrated by another Nairalander.

I don't think Google will pay such or its Naira equivalent(on the basis of the country's economy and not exchange rate) in Nigeria. Albeit, they should be amongst the top paying MNCs in Nigeria.
