Veterans United Home Loans Ranks No. 2 in Companies that Care 2022 by PEOPLE and Great Place to Work®

COLUMBIA, Mo.--()--Veterans United Home Loans, the nation’s largest VA purchase lender, has ranked as one of the top Companies that Care in the country.

PEOPLE Magazine and Great Place to Work® ranked Veterans United Home Loans second on the Companies that Care list for 2022.

“Veterans United’s commitment goes beyond making the American Dream of homeownership a reality for Veterans, it is also helping them make an impact in their communities,” said August Nielsen, vice president of people services at Veterans United Home Loans. “Our employees bring our values of be passionate and have fun, deliver results with integrity and enhance lives every day to life in the way they demonstrate care every day for our customers, communities, and each other.”

Veterans United’s charitable arm, Veterans United Foundation, is dedicated to enhancing the lives of Veterans and military families along with supporting diverse needs in communities across the nation. The Foundation is funded by employees of Veterans United Home Loans and its affiliate companies. More than 90% of employees donate 1% of their paycheck to the foundation to support their mission.

The Companies that Care award is based on more than one million employee survey responses and data from companies representing more than 6.1 million U.S. employees. In that survey, 95% of Veterans United’s employees said that it is a great place to work, compared to 57% of employees at a typical U.S.-based company.

Great Place to Work is the only company culture award in America that selects winners based on how fairly employees are treated. Companies are assessed on how well they create a great employee experience that cuts across race, gender, age, disability status, or any aspect of who employees are or what their role is.

“Caring isn't about being ‘nice,’” says Sarah Lewis-Kulin, vice president of global recognition at Great Place to Work. “It's about understanding the real needs of your people, of your community and of the world—and showing up in ways that make a meaningful impact. These companies make that kind of caring for people, and even the environment, part of their daily fabric.”

In 2022, Veterans United ranked No. 13 on Fortune Magazine’s Best Workplaces for Millennials™ and No. 14 for the 100 Best Companies to Work For®, the company’s seventh consecutive year on the list. In addition, they were also named to Great Place to Work's Best Workplaces for Parents™, Best Workplaces in Financial Services & Insurance and Best Workplaces for Women™.
