Windstream Named 2022 VETS Indexes 5 Star Employer

Windstream, a privately held communications and software company, has been named a VETS Indexes 5 Star Employer as part of the 2022 VETS Indexes Employer Awards. The award recognizes the organization’s commitment to recruiting, hiring, retaining, developing, and supporting veterans and the military-connected community.

“Windstream is proud to be recognized as a VETS Indexes 5 Star Employer,” said Mary Michaels, chief human resources officer at Windstream. “We honor the military service of our nation’s veterans, and we value the technical skills, leadership attributes and sterling character they bring to our workforce.”

“Windstream has demonstrated an outstanding commitment to veterans and the military community, through its efforts to recruit, support, and promote those who served our country bravely,” said George Altman, managing director of VETS Indexes. “One of the best ways to help veterans is to connect them with fulfilling and meaningful careers, at organizations where they can develop their skills and grow into senior leaders. As a VETS Indexes 5 Star Employer, Windstream Holdings has proven to be a welcoming home for veterans and military spouses who want to start the next phases in their lives.”

The VETS Indexes in-depth survey and recognition program analyzes employers’ policies, practices, and outcomes in detail, across the following 5 categories:

  • Veteran job candidate recruiting and hiring
  • Veteran employee development and retention
  • Veteran-inclusive company policies and culture
  • Support for members of the National Guard and Reserves
  • Military spouse/family support

Nearly 120 organizations submitted surveys to be considered for the awards. Responding organizations included companies large and small, government agencies and departments, nonprofit groups, colleges, and universities. Not all organizations that submitted surveys were recognized with awards. The VETS Indexes Employer Awards are reserved only for employers whose veteran-related efforts stand out from the pack, as the best.
