Most of the descriptions of those companies seem to focus on what various financial benefits they provide. I don't see a big pension contribution as a particularly good reason to work for an IT firm. Seems to me like this list was not compiled by an IT guy, or at least not by someone who understands the motivations of IT guys (even the corporate kind).

I guess it depends on where you are in your career. Younger or more self-motivated IT folk will be drawn to exciting opportunities that may not carry great benefits, while those with families, or those looking to retire in 15 years, will be looking at pensions, health benefits, vacation time, etc.
