Why Apply to Duke? March 24, 2022
Working at Duke, you can expect to eat motor grease for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Just kidding, well, sort of. There's definitely dirt under our fingernails, but we consider what we do an art. Whether we're working with our hands, tools, or new technology, we approach each job with skill, patience, imagination, and passion. We do what it takes to get the job done for our customers, from rebuilding a 50-year-old DC motor with hard-to-find parts to reverse engineering a legacy motor for replacement and beyond.
So Why Should I Apply to Duke?
Well, we're a family company, for starters. "The Duke" Raab started Duke Electric in 1933, and it's in the hands of the third generation now. So, we treat each other like family, with shared values and purpose around passion, quality, continuous learning, and integrity. We're passionate about what we do and committed to quality work. We prioritize continuous learning and developing our employees' diverse talents. And we carry ourselves with integrity, which builds trust in a team environment.
Our culture is laid-back, as you might have guessed. You can shoot the sh*t with your coworkers, go for a smoke break (not that we're recommending you pick up the habit), and take a mental health day if you need it. We've got your back as long as you got the skills and the passion for our dirty work.
