Listings for high-paying remote and hybrid jobs, which were scarce at the beginning of the year, have staged a comeback.
The Ladders, a business-career network that specializes in listings for jobs that pay $100,000 or higher, says six-figure remote jobs increased about 20% in the second quarter. This marks a turnaround from the first quarter when The Ladders said the number of hybrid and remote job vacancies for the highest wage earners were in “free fall.”
The main reason for the rebound is companies relenting on strict return-to-office mandates, especially as they look to expand. Still, the number of available high-paying remote and hybrid jobs is about half of what it was a year ago, representing only 12% of available high-paying jobs, The Ladders said.
