Service in Action
Veterans at Lumen apply their training, discipline, and teamwork to roles where accountability and reliability matter.
“The USAF taught me respect is important on many levels. From the start of basic, to my last squadron, our teamwork created respect and camaraderie among diverse individuals from a variety of backgrounds. We learned to respect and appreciate our differences, remaining focused, together, on our team’s objectives. I learned to respect the process, keeping attention to detail.”

“My time in the United States Air Force, inspired many core values like positive attitude and perseverance. When I became an employee at Lumen, I was able to use those values inside my work organization. Keeping a positive attitude is infectious and inspiring. No matter the situation, we can come together for a purpose to succeed as a team.”

“My training and experience in the United States Navy has led me to conclude that atop the list of things keeping me at Lumen is the integrity of the people surrounding me. We all have our personal definition of what integrity actually is, and for me it’s doing the right things for the right reasons, always. At Lumen, specifically within the Public Sector, I’m surrounded by people with this shared perspective.
