Amazon was Chicago’s top non-government employer in 2022 for the second year in a row, the city’s recently published annual financial report shows. 

The tech company first took the top non-government employment slot in 2021 when for the first time in recent years Chicago’s top spot did not belong to a healthcare system. Since first breaking into the top 10 non-government employers list in 2017, the tech company has steadily grown its employment base in Chicago each year.
