Averitt has once again been recognized by Viqtory, a veteran-owned organization dedicated to supporting military service members as they transition to civilian careers. For 2027, Averitt earned a Top 10 Military Friendly® Employer Award and a Military Spouse Friendly Employer® Award, marking nine consecutive years of recognition for supporting veterans, military spouses and their families.
The Military Friendly® program acknowledges companies that demonstrate a commitment to recruiting, hiring and supporting military veterans and their families. Employers are evaluated across several areas, including Recruiting & Sourcing, Policies & Compliance, Support & Retention, Culture & Commitment, Opportunity & Advancement, and Hiring & Onboarding.
“Averitt is grateful for the service and dedication of veterans and military spouses, and we're committed to being a place they can call home,” said Gary Sasser, chairman and CEO of Averitt and a former Marine Corps Reservist. “Our team is stronger because of the unique skills and perspectives veterans bring, and we're dedicated to supporting their success.”
Approximately 15% of Averitt's workforce is made up of military veterans representing every branch of the U.S. Armed Forces. The company also provides ongoing support for military associates through benefits such as paid military leave, career development opportunities and pathways for advancement.
Our commitment to military associates extends far beyond the hiring process. We believe the leadership, adaptability and dedication developed through military service help strengthen our team, which is why we offer opportunities for career growth, promotion from within and long-term success. We're dedicated to creating an environment where veterans, military spouses and their families can thrive.
