As Veterans Day 2024 approaches, Forbes is honoring the companies that support former and current members of the military through our upcoming list of America’s Best Employers For Veterans 2024.
For the fifth year in a row, Forbes partnered with market research firm Statista to create the ranking, which is based on survey responses from more than 24,000 veterans (those who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces, the Reserves or the National Guard) working for companies with more than 1,000 employees in the United States. In a process that’s similar to how we created last year’s list, survey participants were asked if they would recommend their company or institution to friends and family and to rate their employer on criteria ranging from work atmosphere and salary to health benefits, career development opportunities and programs tailored to veterans. Respondents were also asked to evaluate other companies within their respective industries.
The surveys were collected and combined with survey data from the past three years, with a heavier weight placed on the more recent data and on the responses from current employees. After all data points were analyzed and put into a scoring system, the companies with the highest scores made our list of America’s Best Employers For Veterans 2024.
To see the final rankings, check back in on November 7.
As with all Forbes lists, companies pay no fee to participate or be selected. To read more about how we make these lists, click here. For questions about this list, please email listdesk [at] forbes.com.
