MELVILLE, N.Y. and DAVIDSON, N.C., June
18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- For the second consecutive
year, Computerworld (http://www.computerworld.com) has
named MSC Industrial Supply Co. (NYSE: MSM) as a 2018 Best Places
to Work in IT, one of 100 top organizations that challenge their IT
staffs while providing great benefits and compensation. MSC, a
premier distributor of Metalworking and Maintenance, Repair and
Operations (MRO) supplies to industrial customers throughout
North America, ranked No. 41 among
large organizations on the list.
"Being recognized by Computerworld as a Best Place to
Work in IT for the second year in a row is wonderful acknowledgment
that our efforts to attract and retain top IT talent are working.
We are gratified to be considered among the best in providing our
IT associates ongoing learning and development opportunities to
grow their careers in a fun and rewarding environment," said
Charlie Bonomo, Senior Vice
President & Chief Information Officer for MSC. "The ranking
also serves to recognize the many contributions and accomplishments
of our diverse workforce of outstanding and engaged IT
professionals and all of our associates across the organization who
help make MSC a top workplace."
MSC's continual investment in IT solutions leverages
custom-developed applications, best-of-breed commercial software
and the latest technology like cloud computing, artificial
intelligence and big data analytics, Bonomo said.
"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."
