Honoring U.S. military Veterans with Walmart TCC Operations Manager Jason White
As communities across Ohio and the rest of the country will host celebrations, parades, and ceremonies to honor Veterans of our United States Armed Forces, we are joined by Jason White, Operations Manager at Walmart's East Transportation Command Center in Grove City, OH. Jason served the U.S. Army from 2002 until 2018 when he transitioned to the Ohio Army National Guard and currently serves as Sergeant First Class. We asked Jason to share a little about his military experience and how he made the transition from active duty to the national guard and the career path he embarked upon with Walmart. In 2013 Walmart launched the Veterans Welcome Home Commitment which guaranteed a job offer to any eligible, honorably discharged U.S. veteran. Walmart’s original goal was 250,000 hires – and in 2020 the company reached that benchmark. Since then, more than 520,000 veterans and military spouses have joined Walmart.
