Quick Analysis & Learning from Fortune 500 Companies

-
Fortune Global 500 is the list of top 500 companies worldwide, published by Fortune Magazine, measured based on revenue. 



List varies each year and the below analysis is based on the list of Fortune companies available on PayScale website.


Based on the figures above :

1. Highest Average Median salary is around $ 69,856 and they have employees with an average age of around 38 years with an average tenure of 5.2 years in the same company.

So in the world of money, not everyone who pays high can expect the loyalty of their employees. There is more to money for any employee.


2. There are only 13 companies who pay more than $100,000 annually and the average age of the employees is 35, who stay for average tenure of 4 years.

Big Companies with around $100,000 median salary are
  • Google -  Avg employee age 29 with avg tenure of 1.1 year 
  • Amazon - Avg employee age 32 with avg tenure of 1.0 year                                        

3. Companies with lowest median age employees tend to provide low average salary as they incur more expense in training new employees. Such companies have employees who stay for an average of 2.0 to 2.6 years only.


4. The average age of  employees with a tenure more than 10 years in a single company,  is 45 years. Also, in around 20 companies with employees` average age less than 30 years stay for only 2.7 years. 

 Does this indicate that young employees look for frequent change, whereas older employees stick to the organizations for a longer period ? 

These observations are #Mythoughts and would like to know yours.

World is being a more competitive place and to retain customers and increase the sales / turnover of an organisation, there are many things a company can plan / strategize. But many times the company plans to achieve these strategies by squeezing the existing resources. But since many employees fear saying "NO" to the managers, they take the tasks / additional load which would impact the productivity levels of their existing tasks : Am not saying here that each task an employee receives, must say "NO" to it, but my point is that the employee needs to evaluate it before accepting.  1. What is current occupancy level ?  Nobody in the organisation is working for 100% of their working hours. This is a known fact to all. But the occupancy level differs for each employee. The employee needs to evaluate the occupancy level and based on the same if it is more than 75% then he can explain the same to the manager in a logical way to say "NO" to t...

First day to office, get the best shirt you have, get the best trousers, polish the shoes until it shines like a mirror, get the best perfume etc etc..... So it is the best you put on to impress the people you will be meeting in first day of first / new company. Let's look into some of the must do things as an employee joining a new organization : 1. Be who you are : While they say "First Impression is the best impression", be who you are, do not over impress. While many employees take the extra effort to be accepted in new organization, what they miss out is probably that this extra effort would cost them in future.
