Christian IT / Computer companies

Wow! My apologies for any offense. I did not realize that asking for more clarification would result in such a high wall of resistance. I meant absolutely no disrespect or animosity whatsoever with my question. I just wanted to have a better and clearer understanding of what you were looking for so that I might be able to help you. Is that not what we Christians should strive for?

So, I will see what I can do based on your answer to my question which was, "A company that cares." I think most companies care. All companies care about turning profits. After all, it is not only the reason for being in business but it is also the law that requires it with the exception of those listed with not-for-profit status. All companies care about their employees and staff. After all, there is no company that I am aware of that can remain in business if it doesn't care about those that complete the tasks, even if "those that complete the tasks" is only one person such as my part-time farming activity. All companies care about their customers. After all, the primary ones served by the company is its customers. A large number of companies care about the people in their communities by providing jobs and financial support for local social programs.

I gave you a link to my company's website where you can find a list of job opportunities today and in the future if you check it out from time-to-time. My company is one that I would describe as a "Christian" company. The reason I say this starts with the original owner and current CEO. He is without a doubt a Christian and is not shy about sharing his faith. It is not uncommon for him to give credit for our success to God where it belongs and he often opens our company meetings with prayer. I don't know if we still maintain a membership but I do recall my company at one time being a member of the Fellowship of Companies for Christ International (FCCI). For the 25+ years I have been working here, my company has hosted weekly devotions every Tuesday morning and it is paid time. We have a corporate chaplain on our payroll and he sponsors Christian-based and faith development seminars right here at our place of business for employees who wish to attend along with personal support for any that need it. My company formed The Douglas Machine Foundation, of which I serve, and gives it an annual budget for helping those in the community. Part of the Foundation's purpose includes "providing financial support to nonprofit organizations that focus on community improvement through social services, education and various faith-based initiatives." From my company's mission and values statement we get, "The core of our values is an abiding respect for Biblically-based business principles. To us this means conducting business in a manner that is legal, ethical, moral and healthy to the faith-based spiritual life of every employee owner, customer, supplier and competitor." My company became employee-owned 15 years ago and has maintained those same ideals and practices.

Does all of this make it a Christian company? I don't know but one thing I believe in my heart is that claiming the title "Christian" does not a Christian make.

I agree. Thank you. Unfortunately the CEO of my job was a Sunday school teacher, but his actions showed different. it really through me for a loop. It reminded me off some of the folks that go to my church, but when they are out of church there actions change. I learned a BIG lesson in life because of this all.

I personally try to cut myself short of judging the behavior of others and whether or not they are Christian. A wise friend once told me that when I point my finger at others, there are at least three pointing back at me. This falls in line with Jesus' analogy of removing the plank from our own eyes before attempting to remove the speck from others' eyes. If someone was to judge my behavior in and out of our church setting, I wonder what they would say? I'm not sure I would like to hear the answer to that question.

Rather than looking for that "Christian" company that satisfies your ideal, maybe it would be better to just do your best to share the love of Christ and be a witness to those where you do work. Who knows, you could plant the seed that takes your company from one of questionable ethics to one that honors God in everything it does.
 
I totally agree. Unfortunately I tried to plant that seed. Hopefully one day it sprouts. At this point in my life I opt to be around my Chtistians brothers. I don't think it can get much worse hoping to find a good company with Christiam values. I have tried the other route many times. As far as love that's all I have and spread. I see where you are trying to come from though and appreciate it.
 
Your best bet would be to go to a local Christian Businessmen Assoc and see if they know of any Christian business men in a position to help you.
