Pros
If you're a hands-on type of person and you like working in an environment where you can learn a lot, RedViking is a great place to be. Lots of very unique projects, lots of different industries (automotive, aerospace, construction, military), and lots of smart people to surround yourself with. Since we design custom-engineered equipment and solutions, every project/quote/opportunity brings with it new challenges and new technologies, and it definitely keeps things from getting stale. Projects tend to be pretty fast-paced, and if you're willing to take initiative, the company will definitely give you more responsibilities. Most of the upper management rose through the ranks as engineers at RedViking (formerly Superior Controls) themselves.
The company has been going through a growth period, which has both pros and cons, but in general, it's an enjoyable place to work. The company is big enough to tackle projects of pretty serious magnitude, but small enough to where you can get to know most of the employees (around 220 people), and morale around the office is generally pretty good.
Nice onsite gym, great cafeteria, good people.
Cons
Lack of career development programs/opportunities. Lack of a unified vision among the upper management.
