Old National's Military Friendly Designation

Old National's Military Veterans Impact Network (MVIN) brings together team members who support veterans, service members and their families through volunteer opportunities, events and shared experiences. "This Military Friendly designation is more than an honor," said Carrie Ellspermann, Old National's Chief People Officer. "It reflects the contributions of the veterans, service members, and military-connected team members who make a difference at Old National every day."

More than 1,200 companies participated in the Military Friendly survey, with organizations evaluated using public data sources and responses to a proprietary survey. Final ratings combined an organization's survey score with an assessment of its ability to meet and exceed thresholds for recruitment, new hire retention, employee turnover, and promotion and advancement of veterans and military employees. Military Friendly released its 2027 list of top employers on November 11, 2026, recognizing 282 companies, according to PR Newswire.

"These organizations don't just open doors for veterans, spouses, and service members; they build pathways for lasting impact," said Kayla Lopez, Vice President of Memberships at Military Friendly.
