PPG has once again been honored as one of the best places to work in the field of information technology, according to Foundry’s Computerworld. This marks the seventh time that the company has earned a spot on the list which recognizes organizations that provide a challenging and rewarding environment for their IT staff.


The 2025 list ranks PPG as the 18th best large organization for IT professionals. The company’s focus on people development and its commitment to leveraging the power of AI and the cloud environment were key factors in its recognition. PPG has also been recognized for its efforts to modernize and digitize its operations, as well as its dedication to global talent development.


"It’s a great honor to again be recognized for excellence in our Digital IT function," said Bhaskar Ramachandran, PPG vice president and chief information officer. "It reflects our focus on people development, as well as our commitment to harnessing the power of AI and the cloud environment. Our initiatives for global talent development, clear connection in our work to the business strategy and purpose, as well as a focus on modernizing and digitizing our organization is key to our collective success."


In addition to its overall ranking, PPG has also been recognized for its specific efforts to support the professional growth and development of its IT staff. The company has provided its employees with a variety of opportunities to build new skills, including special projects and assignments related to AI and the cloud. PPG also places a strong emphasis on mentorship and career development, with a focus on helping employees gain experience outside of their primary roles.


"PPG’s commitment to people development throughout IT has provided its staff with a variety of opportunities, including assignments to special projects for skills development, especially related to AI and the cloud environment," said Ramachandran. "The team also encourages stretch capabilities, experiences outside of an IT professional’s primary role and mentorship programs within the business."
