We have and always will put our customers first, keeping them front and center in all we do, while at the same time providing them with outstanding capabilities.

Around that service-first ethos, a unique culture has grown. Rackers take exceptional care not only of our customers, but of each other, and the communities where we live and work. Our global, employee-led volunteer organization, Rack Gives Back, donates tens of thousands of hours each year, while our employee-funded Rackspace Foundation supports underserved students in the neighborhoods around our San Antonio headquarters.

In recognition of those efforts, People magazine named Rackspace to its second annual Companies That Care list.
