Companies in Plano, TX: major employers and headquarters

Largest companies in Plano, TX by employees

The city's biggest employers are banks. On Plano Economic Development's leading employers list, JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and Capital One together account for more than 24,000 jobs, and Toyota, the name people know, is fourth. The list isn't dated, so read the counts as the EDC's latest, not a 2026 census.

Here's why it matters for your house hunt: the campuses with published locations (JPMorgan Chase, Liberty Mutual, Frito-Lay, Samsung and AT&T's future headquarters) are all in the Legacy area of west Plano, where homes cost more than the city's typical $497,714. So find out the campus first, then decide whether the shorter drive is worth the price.

Where to live near the companies in Plano

For a Legacy campus, the closest homes cost about $130,000 to $323,000 more than Plano's typical value (Zillow, September 2026). That's the price of skipping the tollway. If it's too much, the center of the city is the cheaper, longer drive.

Plano neighborhoods closest to the Legacy campuses

Legacy surrounds the campuses in ZIP 75024, where the typical value is $628,592. Deerfield ($800,944), whose HOA lists the Legacy Drive business park among its neighbors, and Kings Ridge ($820,827), about two miles west of the Dallas North Tollway, are the single-family picks. The catch with Kings Ridge: it's in Denton County, so the tax bill and school district differ from Deerfield's. For a lower price, central ZIPs 75025 ($545,917) and 75023 ($413,745) mean a longer drive across the city.

Plano neighborhoods for Dallas office commuters

If the employer is in Dallas, flip the search to the east side near Parker Road and Downtown Plano stations on DART's Red and Orange lines. ZIP 75074 there is the cheapest in the city at $362,198. Our commute guide from Plano to Dallas compares rail and driving.

Plano company relocation checklist

1. Get the exact campus address from HR; the Legacy area alone has several campuses.
2. Ask about relocation assistance, a temporary housing allowance and the start date.
3. Rent for a few months if the start date comes before your search is done; the typical asking rent is $1,736.
4. Shortlist neighborhoods by drive to that address, then price; our guide to neighborhoods in Plano sorts them.
5. Work through the Texas paperwork: license, registration and homestead, in the order on our Texas moving checklist.

Financial companies on the Legacy West campuses

Two of Plano's biggest campuses were built for financial and insurance companies in the Legacy West development, both opening in 2017.

JPMorgan Chase campus at Legacy West

The bank bought 50 acres within Legacy West and finished a 1 million square foot campus in 2017. A second phase, a 12-story tower with 540,000 square feet at 8181 Communications Parkway, was due in May 2021, according to ConnectCRE. With 11,133 employees on the EDC list, it's the city's largest employer, and the homes nearest it are in Legacy and Deerfield.

Liberty Mutual campus at Legacy West

Liberty Mutual opened its Legacy West campus on November 29, 2017, with one million square feet of offices and nearly 5,000 employees expected, according to the Texas Governor's office. The EDC list now shows 2,022 Liberty Mutual employees in Plano, so ask about the current team size if your offer is there.

Capital One and Bank of America in Plano

The EDC list shows Capital One's banking, mortgage and credit card operations at 6,218 employees and Bank of America's mortgage back office at 7,266. Fannie Mae (2,000), USAA (2,092) and Fisher Investments (1,700) add to the finance cluster.

Companies moving to Plano: AT&T and Samsung

Two announcements in 2026 will add headquarters jobs to a city that already has many. Both are going to sites the companies already know in the Legacy area.

AT&T headquarters moving to Plano

On January 5, 2026, AT&T told employees it will build its new global headquarters at 5400 Legacy Drive in Plano, leaving the Whitacre Tower in downtown Dallas, where it moved in 2008. NBC DFW reported that the campus will consolidate nearly 6,000 workers from across North Texas, with partial occupancy targeted as early as mid-2028, after nearly a year of planning.

Why AT&T is moving to Plano

Dallas City Manager Kim Tolbert said it came down to AT&T's wish for a horizontal location with significant acreage for development, and Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson said its leaders preferred a large suburban-style campus to a downtown tower. The city's own plan points the same way: Plano Tomorrow reserves the city's remaining undeveloped land for employers offering skilled jobs ahead of new housing.

Samsung moving to Plano

On June 2, 2026, Community Impact reported that Samsung Electronics America is moving its U.S. headquarters from New Jersey to its existing Plano campus, in the Legacy area at Tennyson Parkway and Communications Parkway. A company spokesperson confirmed the move and said the transition should finish by the end of 2026. The EDC already lists Samsung's Plano office at 1,671 employees.

What AT&T's Plano move means for buyers

If you're among the AT&T employees relocating, you have until at least mid-2028. Use it: rent first, drive the route to 5400 Legacy Drive at rush hour, and buy without a deadline. The neighborhoods nearest 5400 Legacy Drive are the same ones that serve the other Legacy campuses, listed below.

Companies headquartered in Plano

The EDC list marks which offices are headquarters, but it doesn't give addresses for most of them. If your offer is from one below, ask HR for the building before you shortlist a single neighborhood.

Toyota Motor North America headquarters in Plano

Toyota opened its North American headquarters here in 2017, about three years after announcing it would leave Torrance, California. Building Design+Construction described a 100-acre, LEED Platinum campus designed by Corgan for more than 4,000 people; the EDC list now shows 5,143. Toyota Financial Services has its U.S. headquarters in the city too.

Frito-Lay and PepsiCo Foods North America in Plano

Frito-Lay North America, PepsiCo's snack business, lists its headquarters at 7701 Legacy Drive, Plano, TX 75024, which puts Legacy and Deerfield closest. PepsiCo Foods North America's research and development facility is a separate entry, with 3,759 employees.

JCPenney and other headquarters in Plano

JCPenney's corporate headquarters has 2,000 employees on the EDC list, and Pizza Hut U.S., Cinemark, Tyler Technologies, Integer Holdings, U.S. Renal Care, Alkami Technology and Hilti North America also have headquarters here. Their headcounts are in the table below.

Technology, telecom and healthcare companies in Plano

Below the banks and the headquarters is a long middle of technology and hospital employers, most with 500 to 2,000 people. They spread jobs beyond the Legacy campuses, which is good news if your budget points to central or east Plano.

Telecom companies in Plano: Ericsson and AT&T

Ericsson's regional headquarters has 3,346 employees, and AT&T already has two Plano entries before its headquarters move: the Foundry and Services innovation center (2,500) and a training and call center campus. If your AT&T offer names one of those, it may not be Legacy Drive, so check.

IT services and software companies in Plano

NTT DATA's regional headquarters (1,917) is the largest IT services office on the list, with Cognizant and Tata Consultancy Services behind it. None of these has a published address on the EDC list, which is the point: get it from the recruiter before you pick a side of the city.

Hospitals among the largest employers in Plano

Medical City Plano (2,332), Children's Medical Center Plano (1,800) and Texas Health Plano are the largest hospital employers, with two Baylor Scott & White hospitals after them. If your offer is from one of them, ask for the campus address and test the drive at the hours your shifts start.

Plano companies and the no-income-tax pitch

The EDC's taxation page leads with the fact that Texas has no personal or corporate income tax. For you, that means no state tax on your paycheck and a higher property tax: about $1.70 per $100 of home value before exemptions for tax year 2026 (Plano ISD, Collin County), or about 1.30% of a typical home's value after the homestead exemption. Our guide to Texas taxes for Plano residents sets out both.
