Acxiom(R) Corporation (NASDAQ: ACXM) announced it has
been named one of the "Best Places to Work in Information Technology"
by IDG's Computerworld magazine, the fourth time the company has been
ranked in the top 100 work environments for technology professionals.
The annual Computerworld survey ranks the top 100 best places to
work based on extensive company and employee questionnaires regarding
benefits, diversity, career development, training and retention.
"Innovation is one of the hallmarks of our business and is the
creative spark that drives our success," said Acxiom Company Leader
Charles D. Morgan. "Our technical innovation gives us a competitive
advantage in the marketplace, and our workplace innovation makes
Acxiom a great place to work. Innovation is imbedded in the spirit of
Acxiom. It is reflected in our willingness and ability to adapt to
changing business conditions and client needs."
Morgan said Acxiom's IT professionals are responsible for the
development and delivery of Acxiom's Customer Information
Infrastructure (CII), which is believed to be the world's largest
commercial grid-computing platform.
In the past year Acxiom has received significant industry
recognition based on its CII initiative, including the Computerworld
Honor Foundation's 21 Century Achievement Award, CIO magazine's 2004
CIO 100 award for IT-enabled agility and The Data Warehousing
Institute (TDWI) 2004 Best Practices in Data Warehousing Award for
"Radical Data Warehousing/Business Intelligence."
"It's an exciting time to be at Acxiom, and that is truly because
of the vision and talent of our IT professionals. They play a
tremendous role in making Acxiom such a great place to work," said
Richard Howe, leader of the Acxiom Marketing Organization.
Don Tennant, editor in chief of Computerworld, said that this
year's Best Places to Work rankings represent companies across the
industry that recognize how a strong commitment to and investment in
employees is synonymous with creating a great IT work environment.
"Once again, we found that IT professionals are looking for
rewarding and challenging projects, access to leading-edge
technologies, career growth and development and a comfortable
work/life balance," Tennant said. "Our Best Places companies not only
offer these benefits, but do so in a manner that goes well-above
industry norms."
Acxiom also was named to Computerworld's top IT workplace list in
2000, 2001 and 2004. Acxiom has also been named by Fortune magazine as
one of the 100 Best Places to Work in America five times.
