    What stopped from from going with Maverick was their Rider Policy. Limited to Immediate Family Members (e.g. Spouse or children). Have a fiancee who will be going out with me but Maverick is very rigid in this area.

    I would think all companies are veteran friendly.

    "Businesses that hire eligible unemployed veterans can take advantage of a Work Opportunity Tax Credit (WOTC). (This credit is also available to certain tax-exempt organizations.) After recent changes, The Returning Heroes Tax Credit now provides incentives of up to $5,600 for hiring unemployed veterans, and the Wounded Warriors Tax Credit doubles the existing Work Opportunity Tax Credit for long-term unemployed veterans with service-connected disabilities, to up to $9,600."

    Not a direct answer to your question, however I've been researching lots of company's for myself (non-vet) and haven't come across one yet that didn't encourage vets to apply.

    Thank you for your service.
