REV Group, Inc. (NYSE: REVG), a leading manufacturer of specialty vehicles, has been named a 2024 Bronze Military Friendly Employer and Military Friendly Spouse Employer by VIQTORY, a veteran-owned military marketing company.
This marks the first year REV Group has been recognized for demonstrating its “commitment, effort and success in creating sustainable and meaningful benefit for the military community” and providing a positive work environment for military Veterans.
REV Group is made up of manufacturers from coast to coast which design and build fire apparatus, ambulances, school buses, recreational vehicles and more. REV Group hires on average 120-140 active duty or military Veterans each year.
“REV Group has a long history of supporting the military in each community our vehicles are made, so it’s an honor to be recognized,” said Mark Skonieczny, president and CEO, REV Group. “We are committed to providing a culture where our Veteran and active-duty military members and military spouses can thrive.”
“Organizations earning the Military Friendly Employers designation have wholeheartedly invested in comprehensive and impactful initiatives that bring about positive, life-changing results for our valued service members, dedicated military spouses, and esteemed veterans within their ranks,” said Kayla Lopez, senior director of Military Partnerships at Military Friendly. “We salute these exemplary employers who raise the bar and understand that hiring military personnel is not merely an act of goodwill but a testament to a standard that truly embodies sound business wisdom.”
Institutions earning the Military Friendly Employer designation were evaluated using both public data sources and responses from a proprietary survey. Over twelve hundred companies participated in the 2024 Military Friendly® survey. Methodology, criteria, and weightings were determined by VIQTORY with input from the Military Friendly® Advisory Council of independent leaders in the military recruitment community. Final ratings were determined by combining an organization’s survey score with an assessment of the organization’s ability to meet thresholds for Recruitment, New Hire Retention, Employee Turnover, and Promotion & Advancement of veterans and military employees.
REV Group will be showcased in the 2024 Military Friendly® Employers in the Winter issue of G.I. Jobs® magazine and on MilitaryFriendly.com.
