This Is the Highest Paying Company in America

Almost no one has heard of Alexandria Real Estate Equities, but it was the highest-paying company in America last year, based on an analysis of S&P 500 companies. The median worker pay for its 470 workers was $295,136, an increase of 90% from 2019.

The data on the pay figures comes from MyLogIQ, which provided it to The Wall Street Journal. One Alexandria Real Estate Equities chief executive officer made about 27 times what Stephen A. Richardson, co-CEO, did. Joel S. Marcus is executive board chair and founder.
