Professionals looking to land high-paying remote or hybrid jobs this year may find it extremely challenging as mounting research suggests the number of these available opportunities is dramatically shrinking.
According to the latest Quarterly High Paying Jobs Report for Q4 2023 published by Ladders, there has been a significant 69% decrease in six-figure hybrid job availability and high-paying remote job postings have decreased by 12%. At the same time, posts for in-person jobs have increased by 93%. This data, analyzed from nearly half a million job postings, suggests major changes in employer preferences.
The data could reflect employers’ growing demand for in-person collaboration and direct oversight of higher-paying roles. The surge of in-person job postings shows how many employers are limiting work from home opportunities for new hireslimiting work-from-home opportunities for new hireslimiting work-from-home opportunities for new hires.
The report also highlights the broader industry impact of high-paying job titles. Fields like healthcare have seen a 54% increase in high-paying job opportunities, likely driven by seasonal health issues and workforce shortages. In contrast, technology and project management sectors have experienced declines in high-paying job opportunities.
While the data does not signal the end of remote or hybrid work models, it does suggest a more selective hiring approach by employers, focusing on roles where physical presence is deemed important for collaboration, leadership, and productivity within high-paying roles.
