IT consulting and technology company Booz Allen Hamilton has been recognized as one of America’s Best Employers for Veterans by Forbes Magazine. Booz Allen Hamilton ranked number 79 out of 150 listings. 

According to the announcement posted by Forbes, the publication partnered with market research firm Statista and surveyed 8,500 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. 

Survey participants were asked if they would recommend their company or organization to friends and family and to rate their employer on criteria such as salary, career advancement opportunities, onboarding policies that help veterans transition into work life, health benefits and representation of veterans in upper management. Respondents were also asked to evaluate other companies within their respective industries.

The survey’s data points were then tallied and put into a scoring system and the companies with the highest scores made the list.

“We are excited to share the news that Booz Allen has once again been recognized by Forbes as one of America’s Best Employers for Veterans. At Booz Allen, we value the service and experience of our nation’s Veterans, and we work hard to create a supportive environment within our company for them. From leveraging their unique expertise to helping them build skills for the future, Veterans are an essential part of our workforce and are a valued part of our community.” shared the company on their Facebook page.

Booz Allen Hamilton employs 32,900 people globally and has 58 offices across the U.S. including in Fayetteville, NC.
