About This Dataset
Technology Companies With the Most Employees
Technology firms are often imagined as small teams with huge revenues, but the largest of them are among the biggest employers on earth. This chart ranks the largest technology companies by headcount in the 2025 list.
Analysis
Amazon employs 1,556,000 people, 2.0 times the workforce of Accenture on 774,000. Headcount splits the sector into two different businesses. Accenture generates about $84 thousand of revenue per employee, while Alphabet generates roughly $1.8 million per employee - a gap of about 22 times between the most and least labour-intensive companies here. The twelve together employ 5,639,846 people, and 4 of them employ more than half a million each. Ranked by revenue instead, Amazon still leads, but the order below it changes completely: staff numbers and sales measure different things in this industry.
