Every year since 1994, Computerworld has searched for organizations across the U.S. that attract skilled tech professionals by offering robust salaries, stellar benefits, access to cutting-edge technology, flexible work environments and more. Starting in 2020, our sister publication Insider Pro took over the leading role in presenting the 100 Best Places to Work in IT.
Want to see if a potential employer has ever been on the list, or which organizations have earned a spot on the list in multiple years? Download this Excel spreadsheet to browse, sort or search through 28 years of Best Places lists.
A few notes about the archives:
- Please note that not all organizations choose to participate in the Best Places program every year.
- This list shows the organizations' names as they appeared at the time; we have not edited them to reflect subsequent mergers, acquisitions or company name changes.
- 2014 is the first year we ranked companies separately by size group in small, midsize and large categories.
- In 1998, the list used a different ranking system from all the other years, so that year's rankings have been omitted.
- The 1994 Best Places list did not rank the employers at all, and only 94 organizations were included.
