Happy SysAdmin Day--Why We Love Our IT Pros

July 26, 2012

In the world of IT, we usually first meet our System Admins when there is a fire they need to put out. Can you honestly say that your employees know your SysAdmin or other IT Pro who keeps your ship afloat? Better yet, when is the last time you’ve thanked him or her? Most likely, a fair amount of your employees don't even know your IT people, because in the world of Systems Administration, no news is good news! In the spirit of the holiday, we are celebrating ALL of our IT Pros!

This holiday began 12 years ago, the same year Bluewolf was formed by Michael Kirven and Eric Berridge. The idea surfaced from a SysAdmin named Ted Kekatos. Ever since, this holiday occurs on the last Friday in July—July 27th this year—and aims to show the appreciation of each and every individual that these SysAdmins support. Here at Bluewolf, we preach the value of iteration and innovation. So true to form, we are putting a new spin on SysAdmin Day. We call it IT Appreciation Day.

How are we celebrating this year? The same way we take care of our consultants and clients year round: at Bluewolf, we strive to show our appreciation to our Clients and Consultants every day!

Our Bluewolf Tech Staffing and Consultant Relations Teams have deployed some great initiatives to support our stellar consultants: 
  • Consultant Relations Program– while most IT Staffing firms have a “love 'em and leave 'em” mentality, we offer an additional layer of continued support for our Tech Staffing consultants and clients during and after projects.
  • Consultant Appreciation Events– we host a variety of events and mixers all over the nation where clients and consultants can network with other industry professionals.
  • Bluewolf Breakroom Events we celebrate the relationships we build with clients and consultants by bringing snacks, refreshments and Bluewolf giveaways to re-energize your workday. 
  • Salesforce Admin Training– as a certified Salesforce partner, we are celebrating System Admin Day by offering our Award Winning Salesforce Training Classes for 50% OFF*.

From putting out fires with dropped servers, viruses, disaster recovery, networking and devices, to architecting high-level strategy around best practices and emerging technology trends, the IT folks are the foundation of the operations of any company. At Bluewolf, we are extending our gratitude in many forms to our consultants today and tomorrow. How will YOU show your appreciation this year? Share your thoughts on what companies can do to better appreciate IT Pros.

Happy IT Appreciation Day!
