• Amazon will decide on a location for its second headquarters sometime this year.

• Amazon has said it would bring in up to "50,000 high-paying jobs" to whatever city it's based in, according to Business Insider's Hayley Peterson.

• Business Insider looked at some of the high-paying roles at Amazon's current Seattle headquarters to get a sense of what jobs could come to its second headquarters.


Amazon is one step closer to establishing its second headquarters.

Business Insider's Hayley Peterson reported that, as of January 18, 2018, the online retail giant is deciding between 20 cities in North America. Amazon is set to make its final choice sometime this year.

For better or worse, Amazon HQ2 will likely fundamentally change whatever area it's established in. Critics have predicted traffic snarls, rising rent prices, and gentrification, while proponents are expecting a surge of jobs and economic opportunities.

To figure the exact kinds of jobs Amazon HQ2 might bring in, we took a closer look at Amazon's first headquarters in Seattle, since it stands to reason that many jobs commonly-found at Amazon's current headquarters would be in demand once a second headquarters is established.

Business Insider sifted through the 14,000 Seattle-based occupations and salaries Amazon employees shared on Glassdoor to find jobs that earn over $90,000 a year and received reviews from more than 10 Seattle-based Amazon employees.

Based on that analysis, here's a look at some of the most lucrative jobs Amazon HQ2 might bring to it's future home city:
