Quick Answer: The best work from home companies that provide equipment in 2025 include GitLab ($1,500 setup stipend), Concentrix (computer + headset shipped), Verizon (laptop + $50/mo internet), HCA Healthcare (full kit including dual monitors), and Amazon (laptop + headset). These companies are actively hiring across customer service, tech support, healthcare, and corporate roles — with full benefits packages included.

Why “Equipment Provided” Changes Everything

If you’ve been searching for remote work, you’ve probably hit the same frustrating wall: most job listings tell you to “have your own laptop and reliable internet” — which is fine if you already have both, but creates a real barrier if you’re switching careers or replacing old equipment.

Here’s what changes when a company provides equipment: you can take the job immediately, even if your personal computer isn’t up to spec. The company ships you a configured device, you set it up, and you start on day one without spending a penny on hardware.

According to research published in late 2025, only about 1 in 5 companies cover remote employees’ home equipment costs — making the 29 companies on this list genuinely special. They’re investing in your success before you’ve earned a single dollar for them.

This guide covers all 29 companies across three tiers: entry-level BPO/customer service (no experience needed), mid-tier Fortune 500 corporate roles, and premium remote-first tech companies. There’s a fit here for every experience level.

Infographic: All 29 companies — equipment, salary, roles, and where to apply

Part 1: Premium Remote-First Tech Companies (Best Benefits)

These are the gold standard of work-from-home employment. Every company in this section was built around remote work from day one — so their benefits, equipment policies, and communication systems are designed for distributed teams, not retrofitted from an office mindset.

The trade-off: these roles are competitive and typically require 3–10+ years of experience in your field. But the compensation, benefits, and quality of life make them worth the effort.

1. GitLab — The Gold Standard of Remote Equipment

GitLab is arguably the world’s most intentional remote employer. With over 2,500 employees across 65+ countries and zero physical offices, every policy — from communication norms to equipment provisioning — is built for distributed work.

New hires receive a laptop (Mac preferred) plus a $1,500 startup stipend to equip their home office however they need: chair, desk, headset, monitor, keyboard, noise-cancelling headphones. After the first year, a $500 annual refresh stipend covers upgrades and replacements.

Who they hire: Software engineers, sales managers, customer success managers, finance professionals, marketing specialists, and HR. GitLab is one of the few companies where truly any role — from legal to data science — is remote.

How to stand out: GitLab values asynchronous communication. In your application and interviews, demonstrate that you can work independently, write clearly, and make decisions without constant check-ins. Read GitLab’s public handbook before interviewing — it’s freely available and shows initiative.

Apply at: about.gitlab.com/jobs

2. Zapier — Remote Since 2011

Zapier has been fully remote since its founding in 2011, which means they have a 14-year head start on most companies in building remote-friendly culture. They hire across finance, marketing, operations, customer support, and engineering — and they’re genuinely location-independent, meaning pay isn’t adjusted for cost of living.

Equipment is flexible: you discuss your specific tech needs with HR and they either ship devices or reimburse purchases. The setup stipend covers computers, desks, chairs, and anything else you need to work effectively.

Apply at: zapier.com/jobs

3. Buffer — Transparent, Human, Fully Remote

Buffer pioneered remote-first culture and salary transparency (they publish all salaries publicly). New hires receive a laptop, a Kindle device with access to free books, and $1,000 to set up their home office. There’s also an additional allowance for co-working space use if you want occasional out-of-home working.

Roles available: Engineering, customer support, finance, and marketing. Buffer is smaller than most companies on this list (~90 people) so openings are fewer but when they come up, competition is stiff.

Apply at: buffer.com/journey

4. Automattic — The WordPress Parent

Automattic (the company behind WordPress.com, WooCommerce, Tumblr, and more) employs over 1,900 people in 97 countries. Their “Happiness Engineers” — the Automattic term for customer support staff — are a particularly accessible entry point for non-engineers.

Equipment and a co-working space stipend are provided. Automattic is famous for its trial process: promising candidates are paid to complete a real paid trial project before a formal offer is extended, which means you get paid to prove your fit.

Apply at: automattic.com/work-with-us

5. RevenueCat — Standout Stipends

RevenueCat is a smaller but fast-growing SaaS company that offers some of the most generous WFH stipends on this list: $2,000 for your workspace setup plus a $1,000 annual self-development stipend for courses, conferences, and books. They also offer salary transparency and equity for all employees.

Apply at: revenuecat.com/jobs

6–13. Shopify, Dropbox, Stripe, Twilio, Gusto, Articulate, 10up, Rev

These companies round out the premium remote tier with strong equipment policies, competitive salaries, and substantial benefits packages. A few highlights:

Shopify (shopify.com/careers) — Digital by default since 2020. Equipment fund + strong benefits. Engineering and merchant support are most active.
Dropbox (dropbox.com/jobs) — “Virtual First” model. MacBook + home setup stipend + company-paid co-working days.
Stripe (stripe.com/jobs) — Distributed-first fintech. Some of the highest salaries on this list ($100K–$300K+) for experienced engineers.
Articulate (articulate.com/about/careers) — EdTech SaaS. Equipment plus $100/month wellness allowance and up to $3,000 annually for childcare assistance.
10up (10up.com/careers) — WordPress agency. Laptop + home office stipend + paid time off + paid parental leave.

Part 2: Customer Service & BPO Companies (Hire Immediately, No Experience Required)

This tier is the fastest route to a legitimate, equipment-provided work-from-home job. BPO (Business Process Outsourcing) companies are essentially large-scale customer service operations that serve banks, insurance companies, healthcare providers, and retailers.

The advantages: no degree required for most roles, fast hiring (often 1–2 weeks from application to start date), training is paid, and equipment is shipped to you before you begin. The trade-off is that pay is lower than tech roles and the work is structured and monitored.

Company	Type	Equipment Provided	Salary Range	Top Roles	Apply At
Concentrix	BPO / CX outsourcing	Computer + headset shipped to employee	$14–$22/hr	Customer Service · Tech Support · Sales	concentrix.com/careers
TTEC	CX outsourcing	Full equipment for employee (not contractor) roles	$14–$24/hr	Customer Service · Healthcare · Finance	ttec.com/careers
Foundever	BPO (fmr Sitel)	Equipment per client programme	$14–$20/hr	Customer Care · Tech Support · Claims	foundever.com/careers
Teleperformance	Global CX leader	Equipment provided for WFH roles	$13–$22/hr	Customer Service · Insurance · Healthcare	teleperformance.com/jobs
Conduent	BPO / govt clients	Company equipment to employee roles	$14–$22/hr	Customer Support · Admin · Back-office	conduent.com/careers
Broadpath	Healthcare BPO	Laptop + USB headset + accessories	$15–$22/hr	Healthcare CS · Claims · Back Office	broadpathco.com/careers

14. Concentrix — World’s Largest Remote CS Employer

Concentrix is one of the world’s largest customer experience companies, employing hundreds of thousands of people globally. They regularly have thousands of open remote positions at any given time — covering healthcare, insurance, automotive, financial services, and retail sectors.

For employee (not contractor) WFH roles, Concentrix ships the computer and headset directly to your address before your start date. Training is paid and typically runs 3–6 weeks before you go live on the phones or chat.

Requirements for most CS roles: High school diploma or equivalent, 1 year of customer service experience (some entry-level roles require none), reliable broadband internet (typically 25Mbps+), and a quiet, dedicated workspace.

Important: Concentrix hires both employees and contractors. Equipment is provided for employee roles. Read the job listing carefully — the employment type is always specified.

15. TTEC — Healthcare and Financial Services Focus

TTEC specialises in customer experience for healthcare, financial services, and retail. Their WFH employee roles come with full equipment for positions that require secure system access (which most do in healthcare and financial services).

TTEC’s “TTEC@Home” programme is specifically designed for remote workers and includes IT support, paid training, and full benefits from the first day of employment — including medical, dental, vision, and a 401K.

16. Foundever (Formerly Sitel Group)

Foundever — the rebranded Sitel Group — employs over 170,000 people across 45 countries. Their WFH programme covers customer care, technical support, and back-office operations. Equipment provision varies by client programme, but most major programmes include a computer and headset.

17. Teleperformance — Constant WFH Openings

Teleperformance is one of the world’s largest CX companies and almost always has WFH openings for customer service in insurance, healthcare, and consumer products. Their remote roles include equipment and paid training, and they hire in most US states as well as internationally.

18. Broadpath Healthcare Solutions

Broadpath focuses specifically on healthcare outsourcing and is consistently one of the better-reviewed BPO employers for WFH working conditions. They provide a laptop, USB wired headset, and additional accessories for employee roles.

Part 3: Fortune 500 & Corporate Companies With WFH Roles

These are household-name employers offering the stability of a large corporation with the flexibility of remote work. Pay is better than BPO tier, benefits are comprehensive, and name recognition on your resume opens doors later.

Company	Type	Equipment Provided	Salary Range	Top Roles	Apply At
Amazon	eCommerce / cloud	Laptop + headset + ethernet adaptor (CS roles)	$16–$22/hr (CS) · $80K+ (corp)	Customer Service · AWS · Corporate	amazon.jobs

Infographic: Three tiers of WFH companies compared — equipment, benefits, salary, who it’s for

19. Amazon — Remote Customer Service and Corporate Roles

Amazon periodically opens remote customer service roles (called “Virtual Customer Service” or “VCS”) that include a laptop, ethernet adaptor, and headset shipped to the employee. Pay starts at $16/hour for CS roles, with substantially higher salaries for corporate and AWS positions.

Amazon also hires remote workers for hundreds of corporate functions — from HR to finance to product management. These roles typically pay $80,000+ and are genuinely competitive. Search amazon.jobs and filter by “remote” to see current openings.

Pro tip: Amazon opens and closes remote CS positions rapidly, sometimes filling hundreds of roles in a single week. Set a job alert and apply as soon as a listing appears.

20. American Express — Premium Remote Culture

American Express has long been considered one of the better large employers for remote customer service work. Their “virtual” CS and travel consultant roles include a desktop or laptop, webcam, and headset. Amex is known for above-average pay for CS work ($18–$26/hr) and strong benefits.

Beyond customer service, Amex hires remote workers in technology, data analytics, risk management, and marketing — with salaries typically starting at $70,000.

21. Verizon — Best Equipment Package in the Corporate Tier

Verizon stands out in this tier for the thoroughness of its equipment provision. Remote customer service and sales employees receive: a company laptop, a headset, a $50 monthly internet stipend, and desk and chair options. New hires go through a structured 13-week training programme — all of which is paid.

Salary ranges from $18 to $30/hr for CS and sales roles, with additional commission opportunities for sales positions.

22–23. Cigna and Liberty Mutual — Healthcare and Insurance Leaders

Both Cigna and Liberty Mutual maintain large remote workforces in healthcare support, insurance claims, and customer service — and both provide equipment to WFH employees.

Cigna is particularly good for people with healthcare backgrounds: medical coders, billing specialists, clinical support, and care coordinators all have strong remote opportunities. Liberty Mutual hires for claims adjusting, insurance sales (licensed), and customer service.

24–25. Nationwide and Allstate — Insurance + Commission Opportunity

Nationwide and Allstate both offer remote insurance sales and service roles that combine a base salary with uncapped commission. Allstate specifically offers a target total compensation of $49,400–$74,100 for remote sales agents, with warm leads provided (no cold calling). Full equipment and day-one benefits are included.

Note: most insurance sales roles require a Property & Casualty (P&C) licence or the willingness to obtain one before starting. Many employers will reimburse licensing costs.

26. HCA Healthcare — Full Equipment Suite

HCA Healthcare — the largest US hospital group — hires remote workers for medical coding, billing, administrative support, and customer service. The equipment provision is notably comprehensive: laptop, dual monitors, headset, keyboard, and mouse are all included. HCA’s benefits package is one of the strongest in healthcare, including free telemedicine and AirMed medical transport.

27. Hyatt Hotels — Hospitality from Home

Hyatt hires remote Guest Services Associates who handle reservations, loyalty programme support, and customer inquiries. Equipment includes a computer, dual monitor adaptor, headset, and accessories. It’s an unusual combination — hospitality industry pay with full WFH flexibility.

28. Conduent — Government and Healthcare BPO

Conduent handles business process outsourcing for government agencies, healthcare systems, and large corporations. Their remote employee roles provide company equipment and offer a wide range of administrative, claims processing, and customer support positions.

29. Signet Jewelers — Retail CS with Full Equipment

Signet Jewelers (which owns Kay, Zales, and Jared) offers full-time work-from-home customer service roles with a generous equipment package: a computer, two monitors, a webcam, and a headset — all shipped to you. The role involves handling customer enquiries via phone and chat for their jewellery brands.

How to Get Hired at Any of These 29 Companies

The application process for WFH roles is competitive — more so since 2020 brought millions of new remote job seekers into the market. Here’s how to stand out.

Resume Tips Specifically for Remote Roles

Include remote-specific tools: List Zoom, Slack, Asana, Notion, Google Workspace, or any other collaboration tools you’ve used. Employers specifically filter for these.
Add “Remote” to any WFH experience: Even if your previous job wasn’t remote, if you worked from home during COVID, list that. “Managed [X] remotely during company transition” shows adaptability.
Highlight outcomes, not tasks: “Resolved 150+ customer queries weekly with 96% satisfaction score” beats “Handled customer service calls”.
Mention your home office setup: A brief note in your cover letter — “I have a dedicated, quiet home office with 100Mbps fibre broadband” — removes one concern from the hiring manager’s mind immediately.
Get specific to the company: Read the company’s values and remote work culture before applying. Mirror their language. GitLab talks about “async communication”; Zapier talks about “clear writing”. Use their vocabulary.

Before You Apply: How to Spot WFH Job Scams

⚠ WARNING: With remote work more popular than ever, WFH job scams have multiplied. Every company on this list is legitimate — but any job you find independently must be verified. Here’s how to protect yourself.

The single most important rule: no legitimate employer will ever ask you to buy equipment and get reimbursed later, send you a cheque to forward to a “supplier”, or pay a training fee. If any of those happen, it’s a scam.

The FTC received over 2.6 million fraud reports in 2024, with job scams among the fastest-growing categories. Many specifically target remote job seekers because the promise of working from home is compelling enough to lower people’s guard.

The 5 Most Common WFH Scam Types in 2025:

Equipment cheque scams: They “overpay” you with a fake cheque and ask you to wire the difference to a “vendor”. The cheque bounces — you’re out the money you wired.
Fake company impersonation: Scammers clone the logos and names of real companies (like Amazon or Concentrix) and post fake job listings. Always apply at amazon.jobs directly — never through a forwarded email or WhatsApp message.
Pay-to-work schemes: “Training fee” or “background check fee” charged before you start. Real employers always absorb these costs.
Reshipping scams: “Receive packages at your home and forward them.” This is money laundering. You become legally complicit.
Task-app scams: “Complete tasks on an app and earn money.” These require you to “invest” in higher-tier tasks. The investment is unrecoverable.

Verify every offer: search “[company name] careers” and find the role on their official website. If it’s not listed there, the offer is fake. Then check Glassdoor and the company’s LinkedIn page.

What to Expect After You Apply

For BPO and customer service roles, the typical timeline is fast: application → online assessment (typing speed, basic skills) → phone screen → offer. The whole process can take as little as 5–10 business days.

For tech and corporate roles, expect a longer process: application → recruiter screen → hiring manager interview → skills test or panel interview → reference check → offer. Budget 4–8 weeks.

The equipment question: Ask during the offer stage — not before. A good question is: “Can you confirm what equipment will be provided and when I can expect to receive it before my start date?” This signals professionalism and shows you’ve thought through the practicalities of remote work.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do all remote jobs provide equipment?

No — only about 1 in 5 remote-friendly companies provide or subsidise home equipment, according to 2025 industry research. The 29 companies in this article are specifically selected because they do. Always ask about equipment provision during the offer stage of any remote job negotiation.

What equipment do these companies typically provide?

At minimum, most companies provide a laptop or desktop computer and a wired USB headset. Better companies add a webcam, monitor, keyboard, and mouse. The best companies (like Verizon, HCA Healthcare, and Signet Jewelers) provide a full multi-monitor setup. Premium remote-first companies like GitLab and RevenueCat give stipends so you can choose your own equipment.

Will I need to return the equipment if I leave?

Yes — almost always. Company-owned equipment must be returned when you leave. Most companies send a prepaid shipping label. If you’re given a stipend (like GitLab’s $1,500) to purchase your own equipment, the equipment is typically yours to keep. Clarify ownership terms before accepting an offer.

Do these companies hire internationally, or only in the US?

It varies significantly. GitLab, Automattic, Zapier, Buffer, and RevenueCat hire globally in most countries. Most BPO companies (Concentrix, TTEC, Foundever) hire internationally depending on the client programme. Fortune 500 companies (Amazon, Verizon, American Express) typically hire only US-based remote workers for CS roles, though corporate tech roles are sometimes global.

What internet speed do I need for a WFH customer service job?

Most companies require a minimum of 25 Mbps download and 10 Mbps upload for customer service roles. Some, particularly those handling healthcare or financial data, require a hardwired ethernet connection (no WiFi) for security reasons. Always check the technical requirements before applying.

Can I get a WFH job with no experience?

Yes — Concentrix, TTEC, Foundever, Teleperformance, Broadpath, and Conduent all hire entry-level remote customer service workers with little or no prior experience. These roles typically require a high school diploma, a quiet workspace, and reliable broadband. They are the best starting point for building a remote work career from scratch.

Is it better to apply directly on the company website or through job boards?

Direct applications on company career pages are generally more effective — your application goes straight into their ATS without being filtered through a third-party aggregator. That said, job boards are useful for discovery. A good approach: find roles on LinkedIn or Indeed, then apply directly on the company’s careers page.

What does “equipment provided subject to role” mean?

This phrasing, used by some companies, means that equipment provision depends on the specific position. Customer service and roles requiring secure access to company systems typically always include equipment. Some contract or part-time roles may not. If you see this language, ask specifically about your target role during the interview process.

Your Next Steps: Apply to 3 Companies Today

Twenty-nine companies. Every one of them provides equipment. Every one of them is currently hiring or regularly opens new roles. The only thing standing between you and a work-from-home job is submitting the application.
