Leading IT Publication Recognizes State Street as Top 100 Employer
For Second Consecutive Year State Street Corporation (NYSE: STT),
the world's leading provider of services to institutional
investors, announced today that it has been selected as one of the
top 100 workplaces for information technology (IT) professionals in

IT survey. State Street was among six New England companies to be
named to the list. "State Street is honored to receive this
recognition for the second year in a row by a leading industry
publication and, most importantly, by our own employees," said
Joseph Antonellis, chief information officer for State Street.
"This recognition as a best place to work for IT professionals can

Work in IT" feature has ranked the top 100 work environments for
technology professionals, based on a comprehensive questionnaire
regarding company offerings in categories such as benefits,
diversity, career development, training and retention. In addition,
this year Computerworld surveyed more than 20,400 IT workers for
the list, and their responses factored heavily in determining the
rankings. "This year's Best Places to Work rankings represent
companies across the industry that recognize how a strong
commitment to and investment in employees are synonymous with
creating a great IT work environment," said Don Tennant, editor in
chief of Computerworld. "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. Our Best Places companies not only
offer these benefits, but also do so in a manner that goes well
above industry norms." The Best Places to Work ranking appears in
