Companies judge their investment in hiring and training by looking at their profits divided by the number of employees they have. Generally, the more each employee “earns” for the company, the better the success and profit margins of the company. After all, employees are one of the most valuable investments a company can make.
This graphic from the Chartistry team ranks companies based on which have earned the highest profit per employee. The highest-ranking company has a wide lead over others on the list. ConocoPhillips makes an impressive 2 million dollars per each of their 9,500 employees. This is no great surprise since they produce oil, and oil and gas are one of the most valuable commodities in the world. You’ll notice other oil companies in the top ten: ExxonMobil and Chevron. This chart provides a strong visualization of a specific aspect of a company's success.
