ME is a Great Place to Work in IT for the second consecutive time

In August of this year, Mercado Eletrônico won, for the second consecutive time, the Great Place to Work award and was among the 150 best companies to work for in Brazil.

And on the evening of this Thursday (17/10), we received another good news: we won, once again, the GPTW Tecnologia and we are in the 2019 ranking of the 110 best companies in the country in this important segment, which continues to grow.

The awards ceremony took place at the Transamerica Expo Center and brought together representatives from small, medium and large businesses. In the medium-sized category, Mercado Eletrônico competed with 70 other companies and came in 28th place. The survey conducted with employees obtained a 90% satisfaction rate, a great achievement for the HR team, which takes seriously its greatest and most important value “people first”.

 

The IT market in Brazil

With technological advances and the emergence of new tools, it is predictable that the IT sector is gaining great relevance. The growth estimate for the IT market in Brazil, for example, is 10,5% this year, compared to 2018, according to IDC's forecast, which predicts a strong positive impact especially in the devices segment. When added to the Telecom sector, which is expected to contract by 0,3%, the Brazilian ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) market will grow by 4,9%.

New areas are emerging rapidly, creating a high demand for professionals in the sector. This is a positive point, as there is no shortage of work, but at the same time it is negative, as there are not enough qualified people to fill these positions. This makes companies value this area even more, which has become essential for maintaining innovation and modernization within organizations.

 

People First

Mercado Eletrônico received recognition and stood out by defining strategies that include aligning the company's objectives in communication with its employees, in addition to the DiverseME and ME Desenvolvo initiatives, which aim to foster respect for differences among employees and encourage studies, respectively.

According to Adriana Oliveira, HR Director at Mercado Eletrônico, being among the best companies to work for in IT for two consecutive years is not just an award, but the certainty that we are moving in the right direction. We are an innovative company, driven by technology, and this award has a very special meaning for each of us. But we are not stopping here. Our ambition is to provide, every day, the best work environment so that our team can work with engagement and motivation.”

  

The GPTW Award

Great Place to Work is held in more than 53 countries and its mission is to reward companies that transform the work environment. The ranking only includes businesses that make the most of their people, helping them achieve exceptional and sustainable results.

This year, 110 companies were awarded:

  • 20 small companies, up to 99 employees.
  • 70 medium-sized companies, with 100 to 999 employees.
  • 20 large companies, with over 1000 employees.

With each passing edition, it becomes more difficult to be among the winners. In 2019, for example, the award saw a 46% increase in the number of participating companies. In total, 70 new companies entered the ranking.
