Remote.co Spotlights 25 Virtual Companies Without Headquarters
BOULDER, Colo. (PRWEB) July 16, 2018 -- To celebrate its third anniversary, Remote.co, the definitive resource for companies, entrepreneurs, and freelancers interested in or already embracing remote work, has highlighted 25 fully virtual companies across different industries that operate without physical headquarters and whose employees all work remotely. Since launching three years ago, Remote.co has grown to include company Q&As from nearly 140 companies and teams, representing over 52,200 remote team members, about how remote businesses thrive in a fully virtual environment.
Nearly 3% of the total U.S. workforce work from home at least half of the time. The average telecommuter is 46 years or older, has at least a bachelor’s degree, and earns a higher median salary than an in-office worker. The average person can save at least $4,600 annually by working remotely.
“The top four most popular career categories for remote jobs are healthcare, computer/IT, education, and sales, but as this group of companies demonstrates, remote work is compatible across diverse industries,” said Sara Sutton Fell, founder/CEO of Remote.co and FlexJobs. “And while fully remote companies are not yet the norm, there is absolutely a growing contingency of companies, both large and small, that are embracing it as a strategic, scalable, sustainable, and smart business model,” Sutton Fell concluded.
Below is a list of 25 fully virtual companies, along with their company size and description. Each company meets the following criteria:
- Has no physical headquarters
- Has at least 25 employees
- Everyone works remotely 100% of the time
- Represents diverse industries, such as administrative, computer & IT, finance, HR, marketing, nonprofit, education, and travel
- Hires for a variety of remote positions, such as customer success manager, head of people, and platform engineer
