The Top 100 biggest companies in the world

Walmart

2021 revenues: $559.2 billion
More than half of Walmart's 2.3 million employees work at its 5,342 retail and discount superstores in the US. The rest of its staff are based at their international locations in over 20 countries, including 400 retail outlets each in Canada and China.
Founder Sam Walton believed good service and lower prices could help improve people's lives, and that mission has expanded most notably with the powerful company negotiating affordable drug prices for its customers. With revenues still miles ahead of the runner-up of this list, Amazon, Walmart looks to preserve its lead by investing further in store technology, grocery delivery and its online store.
State Grid Corporation of China
2021 revenues: $386.6 billion
China's state-owned electric utility provider, State Grid Corporation of China (SGCC) has faced the same devastating combo of pandemic-related profit loss and government pressure for reduced carbon emissions. Despite the difficulties, SGCC still has substantial profits from serving over a billion utility customers in China as well as stakes in international utilities including the Philippines, Australia, Italy and Brazil. The company's commitment to pursue cleaner energy means a future increase in environmental jobs in addition to the 896,360 workers already employed.

Amazon

2021 revenues: $386.1 billion
Just as its founder, Jeff Bezos, became the richest person in the world, the pandemic hit, and his e-retail empire surged in sales and subsequent profits. Although the entrepreneurial icon stepped away from Amazon’s day-to-day operations in 2021, the company continues to capitalize on multiple fronts. A price hike on Amazon's Prime delivery and on-demand entertainment business, coupled with the climb to over 200 million subscribers worldwide, contributes heavily to the company's profitability.
China National Petroleum
2021 revenues: $284 billion
The world's largest oil and gas company operates in 30 countries, including several strategic and cooperative alliances for drilling, operations and supply chains. The international fuel giant employs over 1.2 million workers, with abundant career opportunities in STEM roles. The company will also abide by the Chinese government's goals to drastically reduce carbon emissions, with plans to shift more of its business to natural gas in the coming years.

Sinopec Group

2021 revenues: $283.7 billion
China's second-largest oil company has seen profits returning with increased demand from factories and freight operators, but their future objectives involve pivoting to greener energy. Sinopec reportedly plans to become China's largest supplier of hydrogen as a transportation fuel by 2025, which means a whole new subsidiary's worth of jobs in addition to the over half a million workers they already employ.
Apple
2021 revenues: $274.5 billion
Apple continues to inspire cult-like devotion from its customers, and the sudden surge in supplying home offices during the pandemic made profits for the tech giant soar. Apple's 154,000 employees enjoy good salaries and benefits in what is considered one of the best companies to work for in the world. The biggest danger to Apple is anti-monopoly legislation as it continuously strives to corner the market on smartphones, apps, computers, smart watches, digital music and even Oscar-winning films.

CVS Health

2021 revenues: $268.7 billion
Jobseekers based in the US with a finely tuned pharmacist résumé have a very good chance of landing a role at a CVS pharmacy. With over 9900 retail locations in the nation, some regions have one practically on every corner. There are additional opportunities for prospective employees, with many of the company's 300,000 workers applying their skills to health care clinics, customer service, information technology and newly acquired insurance provider Aetna.
Toyota Motor
2021 revenues: $256.7 billion
Japan has a massive, lucrative technological sector, but automotive giant Toyota tops the list of the largest companies in the country and the world. Just as customers' environmental concerns have motivated the oil and gas industries, Toyota is focusing on pursuing both hydrogen vehicles and an impressive 15 models of battery electric models by 2025. The company's 366,000 employees work mostly in Japan and North America, but manufacturing and distribution centers offer opportunities globally.

Volkswagen

2021 revenues: $254 billion
Germany continues to excel in the auto industry, which includes many of the best companies to work for in the country. Volkswagen is the largest automotive manufacturer in the region, and second largest in the world, with massive revenues just a hair behind Japan's Toyota Motor. The VW company encompasses several other well-known car makes, including Porsche, Lamborghini, Bentley and Audi. VW employs 663,000 workers globally and favors trainee and development programs, offering an impressive 17,939 apprentice positions as of December 2020.
