Abstract: The main purpose of this research is to investigate the relationship between organizational culture and organizational commitment, in Information Technology (IT) companies in Jordan. A convenience sample was selected from employees working in 24 IT companies in Jordan. A total of 711 questionnaires were distributed among them; 371 were returned, and 342 were valid for statistical analysis, resulting in response rate of 52 percent. Linear regression analysis was also used to test the hypothesis. The results of the analysis indicated that there is a positive and significant relationship between organizational culture and organizational commitment. Based on the results, the research provides several recommendations. IT companies in Jordan should place emphasis on building better culture, in order to achieve higher levels of organizational commitment. The research also suggests that future research should take job satisfaction as a mediator variable of the relationship between organizational culture and organizational commitment.
