To make the list, organizations must successfully complete a survey to verify that they meet at least three out of 10 benchmarks. Those range from having a new hire retention rate for veterans above 50% to encouraging veterans and service members to self-identify through means beyond a survey or voluntary self-identification form.
More than 1,500 organizations competed for the designation, which is owned by Viqtory, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business. Each company on the list is named a top 10, gold, silver or bronze Military Friendly employer. Categories for the Military Friendly Companies survey is over $5 billion annual revenue; $1 billion to $5 billion annual revenue; $500 million to $1 billion annual revenue; government/nonprofit; and less than $500 million.
