These are the same qualities that Spectrum, powered by Charter Communications, looks for in its own team members and it\u2019s why the Fortune 100 broadband connectivity company and cable operator has a robust commitment to recruiting veterans and helping them build meaningful careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Spectrum employs 96,000 people across 41 states and multiple lines of business, with roles varying from field technicians and sales to network operations and marketing. Nine percent of its employees are veterans, representing different branches of service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"369\" height=\"492\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Nguyen.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87015\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Nguyen.jpg.jpg 369w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Nguyen.jpg.jpg?resize=225,300 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 369px) 100vw, 369px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thien Nguyen, who joined Spectrum in 2016 while still serving in the National Guard, has steadily been promoted over the years from operations technician to a network engineer. In this role, he serves as part of the last line of defense in ensuring that Spectrum\u2019s commercial network runs smoothly in Texas. He values the company\u2019s military-friendly culture, as well as its investment in employees\u2019 professional growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere are all kinds of benefits,\u201d said Nguyen. \u201cWhen I was called to complete Guard duties, Spectrum gave me the time I needed and paid the difference between my Guard and Spectrum jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2016\" height=\"1512\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Scott-Wiedeman.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87020\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Scott-Wiedeman.jpg.jpg 2016w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Scott-Wiedeman.jpg.jpg?resize=300,225 300w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Scott-Wiedeman.jpg.jpg?resize=768,576 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Scott-Wiedeman.jpg.jpg?resize=1024,768 1024w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Scott-Wiedeman.jpg.jpg?resize=1536,1152 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2016px) 100vw, 2016px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marine Corps veteran Scott Wiedeman, based in Davison, Michigan, landed a job at Spectrum as residential broadband installer after completing his service and a degree in computer science. He was promoted to commercial installer after just 18 months, and was recently promoted again. Across every team he\u2019s worked with, he\u2019s been struck by how supportive his colleagues and supervisors have been.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThey were friendly and welcoming. A lot of people I work with are veterans too \u2013 one served 27 years in the Reserves and another is Navy. It\u2019s like being around family,\u201d said Wiedeman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nguyen and Wiedeman have also taken advantage of the development opportunities that Spectrum offers, such as training and education reimbursement, which have enabled them to gain new certifications and advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"387\" height=\"393\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suzanne.jpg.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-87023\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suzanne.jpg.jpg 387w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Suzanne.jpg.jpg?resize=295,300 295w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 387px) 100vw, 387px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Army veteran Suzanne Carter joined Spectrum in 2016 and currently serves as Director for Customer Service Operations in Charlotte, North Carolina. Coming from the military, she appreciated the clear workforce processes she was employed to help implement, and felt right at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To help ease the transition from military to civilian workplaces, Spectrum provides<b> <\/b>support for employees at multiple levels. The company\u2019s Veterans Business Resource Group (BRG) also aids the company\u2019s business success while offering professional development opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Carter is an active member of both the Spectrum Veterans BRG and the veterans recruitment committee within her business unit. \u201cWe\u2019re focused on attracting more veterans into senior roles and helping early career veteran employees feel supported and encouraged to grow,\u201d said Carter, who has benefited from mentorship in reaching her current role and now proudly serves as a mentor to other veterans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To attract more employees like Carter, Nguyen and Wiedeman, Spectrum leverages different ways to connect with veterans and support them through recruiting and hiring. This includes partnerships with veterans organizations, dedicated recruiting programs and a specialized Military Attraction Team that engages directly with the military community both before and
