FedEx Named a Best Place to Work in IT by Computerworld

FedEx has once again been recognized by IDG’s Computerworld as a 2018 Best Place to Work in Information Technology (IT). This year, FedEx Services ranked #28 among large organizations on the list of the 100 top organizations that challenge their IT staffs while providing great benefits and compensation. This is the 19th time that FedEx has earned this recognition.

The Best Places to Work in Information Technology (IT) list is an annual ranking of the top 100 work environments for technology professionals by IDG’s Computerworld. The list is compiled based on a comprehensive questionnaire regarding company offerings in categories such as benefits, career development, training and retention. In addition, Computerworld conducts extensive surveys of IT workers, and their responses factor heavily in determining the rankings.

“FedEx is proud to be consistently recognized as a great place to work in IT,” said Robert B. Carter, executive vice president and chief information officer, FedEx Corp. “Our People-Service-Profit operating philosophy and culture empowers our IT team to explore and innovate, creating the capabilities necessary to best meet growing customer needs in an ever-changing marketplace.”

FedEx has continued to seek the edge – expanding, strengthening and securing its IT capabilities through a multi-year digital transformation. The company’s commitment to its people, culture and innovation has provided many opportunities for team members to learn and develop throughout this transformation.

“Over the past couple of years, we’ve seen an already tight market for tech talent get even tighter,” said Computerworld executive editor Ken Mingis. “Computerworld’s 2018 Best Places to Work in IT list illustrates that the companies that offer the best working environments aren’t satisfied with rolling out one or two initiatives. They seek an edge in the talent marketplace through a combination of good salaries, great benefits, ready access to training, and the deployment of cutting-edge technologies. They recognize that the top tech talent can easily move to the organization that respects them best, and they are determined to be that organization.”

Organizations will be included in coverage in Computerworld along with results from the 23rd annual Best Places to Work in IT survey. To view the full list of 2018 Best Places to Work in IT, go to https://www.computerworld.com/article/3279887/it-careers/best-places-to-work-in-it-2018.html.
