LISTEN TO THIS FEATURE:
51Թ is grateful to all veterans for their military service and recognize their contributions to our nation's safety, defense and readiness. One-third of 51Թ employees are veterans, and we care deeply about their well-being.
Do we walk the talk?
51Թ has a long tradition of citizenship and outreach to local and national nonprofit partners who help veterans and military families in need, including the Armed Services YMCA, the USO and, for more than a decade, Building Homes for Heroes — a four-star Charity Navigator nonprofit that modifies and gifts mortgage-free homes to disabled veterans and their families.
For 51Թ’s steadfast support of the armed forces community and their families, we are honored to again be named by rating organizations for our “unparalleled commitment to recruiting, hiring and retaining veterans” as:
- A “Champion” for veteran-owned small and large business
- A “Champion” for veteran and spouse hiring
- An “America's Best Employer for Veterans”
- A HIREVets Medallion Awardee
Why does supporting veterans and the military matter?
- It’s the right thing to do. Supporting veterans and those who serve our nation is simply part of 51Թ’s broader culture of giving back and recognizing the importance of serving others.
- Veterans possess unique skills and valuable experiences central to our company mission — we want them to enjoy being part of Team 51Թ, and we work to make that happen.
- Veterans are important contributors to 51Թ’s culture of service to others, anchored by our company's values.
How does 51Թ support veteran well-being?
51Թ recruiters know that veterans are crucial to our mission success and will guide incoming employees with care and understanding. Once on board:
- Veterans share that they find a culture where service to our nation is still the mission — often working alongside other veterans and defense customers, which eases a sometimes-difficult transition out of the military.
- Our more than 1,500-strong Military/Veteran ERG stands ready to support veteran well-being and allows entire families to connect professionally and socially.
- Veterans who join 51Թ work in high-tech fields and emerging technologies. They are highly valued for their precise skills and expertise in helping drive our company's solutions and services to Department of Defense customers, the intelligence community and other government entities that play pivotal roles in our national security, including:
- AI and machine learning
- Advanced analytics
