The Biggest Companies in the World in 2022

View the high-resolution of the infographic by clicking here.

This year has been shaped by uncomfortable macroeconomic headwinds.

Trillions of dollars were erased in public company market capitalizations, investor confidence waned, and cost pressures squeezed consumer pocketbooks.

Taken together, many of the world’s largest companies experienced sharp declines in market share. Still, a few companies in key sectors had positive growth over the year.

As 2022 comes to a close, the above infographic shows the biggest companies in the world, using data from Companiesmarketcap.com.

The World’s Largest Public Companies in 2022

Today, Apple stands as the world’s most valuable company, towering at a $2.3 trillion valuation.

Despite the tech downturn of 2022—driven by rising interest rates and slower sales—Apple maintained its top spot. This was largely thanks to record revenues and healthy consumer demand for iPhones, which drive about half of its total revenue.

Following Apple is Microsoft. Unlike Apple, Microsoft has faced slower earnings over the year due to lower demand for personal computers and the weighing impact of a strong U.S. dollar. Overall, about 50% of the company’s sales take place overseas.

As we show below, there are now only four companies left in the trillion dollar market cap club.

*As of Dec 12, 2022.

Oil giant Saudi Aramco is the third largest publicly-traded company globally, at $1.8 trillion. It’s also the only non-U.S. company in the top 10.

In May, the state-run company briefly became the most valuable company on the planet as soaring energy prices boosted earnings. Saudia Arabia is the largest exporter of oil in the world, and the country’s economy is forecast to grow 7.6% in 2022—one of the fastest globally.

Overall, 62 companies of the 100 largest are headquartered in the U.S., 11 are based in China, and five are located in France.

Top 10 Performance in 2022

For many of the world’s largest companies, 2022 was a brutal year for performance.

As the above graphic shows, the vast majority of the world’s titans saw their market values decline. Half of these companies saw double-digit drops.

Tesla has witnessed nearly 70% of its market cap being erased this year. Two main factors are behind this drop: falling demand, especially in China, and CEO Elon Musk’s volatile and risky acquisition of Twitter.

On the other hand, UnitedHealth Group has seen the strongest performance among the top 10.

The company, which rakes in a large share of its earnings from employer-backed insurance plans, said that recessionary impacts had not yet begun materializing in 2022.

Biggest Companies in the World, by Sector

Even with sinking market values across the sector in 2022, tech remains dominant.

Among the world’s biggest companies, 20 are in tech, spanning a combined market value of $9.2 trillion. For perspective, that’s about 31% of the market value of the 100 largest companies.

Rank	Sector	Combined Market Value	Number of Companies	Biggest Company in Sector
1	👩‍💻 Technology	$9.2T	20	Apple
2	🚗 Consumer Discretionary	$4.7T	17	Amazon
3	🩺 Health Care	$4.3T	17	UnitedHealth Group
4	🛢️ Energy	$3.4T	8	Saudi Aramco
5	💵 Financials	$3.0T	14	Berkshire Hathaway
6	🏭 Industrials	$1.8T	9	Visa
7	🥫 Consumer Staples	$1.8T	7	Procter & Gamble
8	📞 Telecommunications	$841B	5	Cisco
9	⛏️ Basic Materials	$326B	2	Linde
10	🔌 Utilities	$127B	1	Nextera Energy

Companies are classified according to the FTSE Russell Industry Classification Benchmark. *As of Dec 12, 2022.

Consumer discretionary and health care sectors fall next in line, with big players such as Amazon and Johnson & Johnson among their ranks.

At the other end of the spectrum is utilities, the smallest sector overall at least pertaining to the largest companies list. NextEra Energy, the sole utilities company among the rankings is one of the world’s largest developers of wind and solar energy. Over the next three years, it plans to invest up to $95 billion in greening its power operations.

Change of Fortune

It comes as no surprise that many of the biggest companies in the world are long-established players in global markets.

Yet within the rankings, some of the notable risers compared to 2021 are UnitedHealth Group, which launched from #19 in 2021 to #8 this year and NVIDIA which has climbed to become the 11th largest company globally, up from #24 last year.

By contrast, some of the biggest losers are Meta (Facebook’s parent company) and Alibaba. Meta has fallen across the rankings to #26 in 2022 from #6 in 2021. Meanwhile, Alibaba was once the ninth largest globally but has tumbled to #36. Both companies have seen considerable value wiped from their market caps—roughly 66% and 28%, respectively​​—amid lagging earnings.

With the year coming to a close, it remains to be seen whether the world’s biggest companies stage a comeback in 2023, or face more challenging conditions ahead.

As proven by this list of the 20 biggest companies in the world, which have graced the Fortune 500 list for many years, even record downturns such as the COVID-19 pandemic barely scratch the surface of these powerful behemoths.

The largest companies offer other benefits for jobhunters as well. The breadth of these businesses means opportunities in a wide variety of fields and at varying experience levels. The number of departments and positions provides room for advancement, and the international scope means you can reap the benefits of working abroad.

So, let’s take a look at the top 20 biggest companies across the globe.

20. Industrial & Commercial Bank of China

2021 revenues: $182.8 billion

Asia houses several of the largest and best banks to work for in the world. Founded in 1984 and headquartered in Beijing, the Industrial & Commercial Bank of China (ICBC) employs over 430,000 workers and has 884 worldwide locations in 39 separate countries and territories. With 2021 profits over $45 billion and assets topping 5 trillion, the ICBC ranks yet again as the largest lender in the world. According to their own financial interim report (PDF), the state-owned bank serves more than 9.2 million corporate clients and 590 million personal customers around the world.

19. Royal Dutch Shell

2021 revenues: $183.2 billion

For over a century, Royal Dutch Shell has been a major player in all aspects of the oil and gas industry. This international entity has 87,000 employees and operates in 100 countries, with Shell USA being one of its largest revenue-generators. Despite profit losses across the sector, Shell’s forward-thinking strategies, which include a pledge for net zero emissions by 2050, a 2022 streamlined name change (Shell plc) and a move from The Netherlands to the more tax-friendly England, should keep the company prosperous.

18. BP

2021 revenues: $183.5 billion

It’s a testament to the size and profitability of London’s oil and gas behemoth that a 600% loss in profits still didn’t stop the company from ranking in the top 20. BP operates over 1200 filling stations in the UK, and over 6000 in the US. Its 68,000 employees work across refining, service, technology and other divisions in 70 countries worldwide. Female jobseekers should note that BP leads Big Oil firms in hiring women, including executive positions.

17. AmerisourceBergen

2021 revenues: $189.9 billion

The Bergen Drug Company was the first business in America to use computers for accounting and inventory practices back in 1959. Throughout its history of mergers and acquisitions, AmerisourceBergen has remained at the forefront of innovation and technology in wholesale drug distribution, logistics, and patient services. The company provides a wealth of opportunity for a range of pharmaceutical jobs, with 42,000 employees in over 50 countries.

16. Ping An Insurance

2021 revenues: $191.5 billion

Experts expect China to rule the world’s economy in the not-so-distant future, and companies like Ping An are the reason why. The Shenzhen-based health, home and life insurance company serves hundreds of millions of customers. They’re also a technology leader, with 600 million digital users and a division of Smart City products that utilizes personal and public technology for advanced city-wide data analytics. Ping An’s 362,000 employees work in a variety of roles including financial, legal, administration and translation.

15. Samsung Electronics

2021 revenues: $200.7 billion

If you’re looking for jobs that resist obsolescence and that offer great benefits, tech companies are some of the best places to work for. The nearly 268,000 employees at Samsung have the added security of working for a company that was named the most innovative tech company in the world in a Capital on Tap report in 2021. With a huge share of the smartphone and 5G network market, Samsung also posted a 26.4% increase in yearly profits thanks to its display and memory chip technology.

14. Saudi Aramco

2021 revenues: $229.8 billion

A relative newbie on the Fortune 500 list, this Saudi Arabian mining and oil production company has weathered the pandemic storm and continues to find ways to stay profitable. Saudi Aramco incorporates sophisticated technology to help with environmental, government compliance, efficiency and financial processes throughout the company. Run with a workforce of nearly 80,000, those in search of high-level tech jobs will find ample opportunities here.

13. China State Construction Engineering Company

2021 revenues: $234.4 billion

China is widely known for pouring large sums of money into infrastructure. The state-backed China State Construction Engineering Company (CSCEC) has scored many lucrative contracts. The international company takes on the design, engineering and construction of everything from roads and bridges to skyscrapers, monorail systems, automobile factories and emergency COVID-19 hospitals. CSCEC hires its 356,000-plus employees from all over the globe and offers four different ‘promotion channels’ in management, professional, consultant and operation divisions.

12. McKesson

2021 revenues: $238.2 billion

This pharmaceutical and medical supplies distributor is the largest of its kind in the US. The scope of its operation makes it ideal for government contracts, which includes pharmacy and mail-order supplies for Veteran’s Affairs hospitals and distributing COVID-19 vaccines nationwide. McKesson has additional operations in the UK and Canada, and its 67,500 roles are based in the medical, technology, marketing, sales and project management fields.

11. Berkshire Hathaway

2021 revenues: $245.5 billion

Berkshire Hathaway’s CEO, Warren Buffett, still graces the world’s wealthiest lists and holds sway over investors hoping to achieve a mere fraction of his lifelong success. His company is a juggernaut of a conglomerate that boasts the most expensive shares in history, runs a lucrative insurance division, and owns multiple companies including GEICO, Duracell, Dairy Queen and Helzberg Diamonds. The 360,000 workers with Berkshire Hathaway count on Buffett’s famously sensible business decisions to keep the company stable and profitable.

10. 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.

9. 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.

8. UnitedHealth Group

2021 revenues: $257.1 billion

Though headquartered in Minnesota, this health insurance giant employs 340,000 people in all 50 states and 33 additional countries. The hugely profitable UnitedHealth offers individual and corporate plans as well as Medicare and Medicaid supplemental insurance. It also runs offshoot Optum, which specializes in technology-based health services, including benefits management and data analysis to manage prescription costs.

7. 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.

6. 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.

5. 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.

4. 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.

3. 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.

In response to criticism of work conditions at its distribution warehouses, Amazon has increased wages and benefits for employees, and remains a powerhouse employer with nearly 1.5 million workers worldwide.

2. 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.

1. 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.

Final thoughts

As you can see, the biggest companies in the world span several industries, including oil and gas, banking, and automotive. Unsurprisingly, Chinese businesses take up several slots on the list, but the US retail giant Walmart continues to reign supreme in a combination of profits, assets and employment opportunities.

Jobseekers should consider the multiple benefits of working for large companies, including job stability, career development possibilities, and the ability to work internationally.
