Returning to a company after leaving it isn’t very common, unless there’s a good reason. For Éric Désilets, that reason was the culture, the team and the sense of belonging to a group that moves forward together. And that’s exactly what he found again at Viking Fire Protection.
After working for several years as a Project Engineer, Éric took a new opportunity elsewhere. But it quickly became clear: not all companies are created equal.
“At Viking, I had a real sense of belonging. Elsewhere, that closeness, that recognition was missing.”
What He Found When He Returned
Éric’s return wasn’t just a return to work, it was a return to a team that knew him, trusted him and gave him space to grow. Far from being a step backward, it was a decision from both the heart and the head.
“I knew I was coming back to an environment where my skills are recognized, where I can make a difference and where people come first.”
Since coming back, Éric has taken on more responsibilities and continues to bring real value to his projects, all while enjoying a work atmosphere built on respect and collaboration.
