Summary

Elastic celebrates Veterans Day by highlighting its commitment to employing veterans and their families, offering support through benefits like military leave and training opportunities. The company values the strong connections many employees have to the military, as seen in the stories of team members like Hilary Arnwine and Stephanie Pease, who transitioned into careers at Elastic from healthcare fields. Hilary, supported by her sister and fellow Elastic employee Ryan Anson, joined the company full-time, leveraging her family's military background. Stephanie, whose husband is in the Missouri National Guard, moved into a role with Elastic after working in a pediatric optometry office and helping manage a company acquired by Elastic. Both women emphasize the dynamic culture within Elastic's Federal Services Delivery Team and the importance of programs like Operation Giving Back, which provides veterans with training and professional development opportunities. Elastic's efforts to accommodate military personnel and integrate their skills into the tech industry reflect its supportive environment, making it an attractive workplace for veterans seeking new career paths.
