[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does this mean? Do you mean minority owned or 8a?[/quote] OP here, yes looks like it is 8a status. To PPs, after some additional research it seems it represents where the owner or owners of the business are socially and economically disadvantaged - that she belongs to a historically disenfranchised/disadvantaged racial/ethnic group, and that she has a net worth etc under a certain amount. Guess the title of my post is misleading, as it's not about the revenue of the company itself but rather the race/ethnicity and financials of the owner - designed to give small minority-owned businesses a level playing field for Fed contracts. With that additional info in mind, would this influence your decision to work there? I have no problem with the small business or the minority-owned bit, but the "economically disadvantaged" kind of turned me off at first glance. [/quote]
