IDG’s Computerworld Selects MindTree Consulting to Annual List of Best Places to Work in Technology
MindTree Consulting Pvt. Ltd. announced today that it was selected as one of the best places to work in information technology (IT) by IDG’s Computerworld, the newspaper for IT leaders. MindTree Consulting is an international IT consulting company that delivers affordable business and technology solutions through global software development. The company is co-headquartered in Somerset, N.J. and Bangalore, India.

The Best Places to Work list, published in the May 6th issue and online at www.computerworld.com/bestplaces2002, is an annual ranking of the best work environments in the U.S. for IT workers. To compile the list, Computerworld measured companies in several categories including diversity, training, career development, benefits, hot projects, retention and other criteria prospective IT employees find most compelling. In 2002, the feature was expanded for the first time to include a unique view of companies from across the world.

“As a company in just our third year, we are deeply honored to be recognized by Computerworld as one of the top 100 IT employers in the U.S.,” said Ashok Soota, MindTree’s chairman and managing director. “At MindTree we share an exciting ambition: to build a globally unified culture where employees across continents and skill sets have a total stake in creating advanced technology for some of the world’s leading companies. We think this award reflects that commitment.”

To connect more than 500 employees around the world who work hand-in-hand on client projects, MindTree has invested significantly in advanced collaboration technology. The company is also spearheading comprehensive knowledge-management, project-management and cultural training initiatives. The result is what MindTree calls a “OneShore” global delivery model that fuses people, processes and systems into a single company vision—and a single customer experience.

“The companies selected to our Best Places to Work rankings really understand that it takes more than salary increases to keep technology workers satisfied, even in a slowly recovering economy,” noted Maryfran Johnson, editor in chief of Computerworld. “These organizations offer a chance to pitch in on challenging, rewarding projects. They create opportunities for career advancement. They provide a balanced set of benefits. In short, the best employers build a positive environment that keeps their best IT employees.”
