Hamburg scored a total of 83.2 points with Gelsenkirchen in last place based on ten influencing factors such as economic performance, number of companies, annual disposable income, population density, average rent, percentage of green space and the cost of lunch. Figures from the Federal Statistical Office and the Federal Employment Agency were used for the evaluation, Ophigo said. A total of 58,655 companies are registered in Hamburg and every employee contributes EUR 92,163 to the city’s economic performance every year. A business lunch in Hamburg costs EUR 10.30 on average, the study added.
Hamburg-based start-up Coyo offers best career opportunities in Germany
Hamburg and the cities of Munich (1) and Stuttgart (2) hold the most potential for successful careers, according to a study by Ophigo in Frankfurt. The Elbe metropolis ranked third overall and scored mainly in terms of economic clout and “diversity of employers”. Germany’s 30 largest cities were rated for the Ophigo Career Atlas 2020. Hamburg is also home to Coyo, which the U.S. Glassdoor website rated as the company with the “best career opportunities” in Germany. Current and former employees can review companies anonymously on Glassdoor.
