Why Spiffy Is A Great Place For Veterans To Work

Written by Justin Mitchiner | 07 November, 2023
 
At Spiffy, we honor and appreciate all veterans. Our teams are made up of people from every branch of the Armed Forces, including many who have transitioned directly into leadership positions at Spiffy. Whether working on the front lines or in our office, veterans are invaluable resources for our company culture and overall effectiveness. We are grateful for their service to our company and our country, and we continue to be inspired by their dedication both in and out of the workplace.

Spiffy recognizes veterans' crucial contributions in leadership, field technician, and automotive mechanic roles.  Armed with the valuable skills and experience they gained while serving in the military, veterans bring a unique perspective to their work in the civilian world. For this reason, we actively strive to create a welcoming environment for veterans transitioning into non-military jobs. We hold strong values and emphasize a sense of purpose, which allows veterans to feel empowered and valued at Spiffy. More than 60% of post-9/11 veterans say their military backgrounds have prepared them for civilian employment thanks to initiatives like these. This shows how critical it is for businesses to support our brave service members.
