Averitt has been recognized by Viqtory as one of the most military friendly employers in the country for 2023, marking the seventh time we have received this acknowledgement. Averitt has also received the Military Spouse Friendly Employers® award from Viqtory this year.

Viqtory, a military marketing company with a mission to connect veterans to civilian opportunities, conducts annual surveys to highlight companies that support veterans, their spouses, other members of the military community, and their families in transitioning from the military to the civilian world. This year, Averitt has been recognized as a Military Friendly® Company and a Military Spouse Friendly Employer.

Averitt is very proud to receive the designation as a 2023 Military Spouse Friendly Employer.
