This study aims to examine the effect of work motivation and non -financial compensation on employee job satisfaction. The research method used is quantitative. The research subjects were employees of PT. Pinago Utama Tbk in the city of Palembang, with a population of 65 employees, and all employees were taken carefully. Saturated sampling techniques are used for sampling. Data analysis was carried out using t-test and multiple linear regression analysis using SPSS version 25 software. Hypothesis results showed a positive and significant relationship between work motivation and non-financial compensation and employee job satisfaction at PT. Pinago Utama Tbk in Palembang City. Multiple regression analysis shows that work motivation and non -financial compensation simultaneously have a positive and significant influence on job satisfaction. The regression equation obtained is y = 1,659 + 0.584x1 + 0.324x2. The F test shows a significant value (significance <0.05), which shows that these two variables can jointly explain changes in the level of employee job satisfaction. The combination of work motivation and non -financial compensation provides a significant contribution to employee job satisfaction. The results of this study concluded that work motivation and non -financial compensation have a significant influence on employee job satisfaction.
