Zebra Technologies Corporation has climbed 14 positions to rank 37th on Computerworld’s 2026 Best Places to Work in IT list for large organizations, up from 51st last year. This annual ranking, now in its 21st year, evaluates firms on benefits, career development, training and retention offerings, and incorporates direct employee feedback on culture, leadership and work–life balance. Zebra’s advancement reflects positive survey responses from more than 2,000 IT professionals internally, who cited the company’s ‘Better Every Day’ ethos and commitment to empowering technologists with autonomy and real–time data tools.

The company allocates approximately 10 percent of annual revenue toward research and development, sustaining a pipeline of AI–powered hardware, software and automation solutions that serve retail, manufacturing, transportation, logistics, government and healthcare clients worldwide. CIO Matt Ausman credits this investment strategy with fostering cross–functional collaboration and rapid prototyping: over 150 new product enhancements rolled out in the past 12 months have delivered expanded asset visibility and workflow optimization, reinforcing Zebra’s vision for intelligent frontline operations.
