Viking Client Services: A Different Kind of Company

Some thoughts on working at a place like Viking...

How many times have you heard a company say, “We’re different” only to experience the same old thing? Their product isn’t all they promised. Their warranty is filled with disclaimers. They don’t let you talk to an actual human being when you need support. They have hidden costs or exorbitant fees.

This is especially true when it comes to finding the right place to work.

Even the company with unlimited vacation time, always chilled sparkling water, and employee playgrounds is still ultimately a job with its ups and downs, it’s positives and negatives. So how do you decide who is telling the truth and who is just saying what you want to hear? Experience is the only real way to know, but most of the time you don't have the luxury of experience before entering into working somewhere.

So if we can't experience it before we sign up, how can we make a good decision?

Look at the People

How do the employees feel about the company? What’s their perspective on the company's work and the way it treats them? 

This is one of the many reasons VIking is so intentional about who is on our team. Many companies can talk about their technology innovation as their great differentiation and marketing strategy. Some talk about the richness of their tradition or history.

But we talk about our people.

Our people have to be made from a different mold. Our work at Viking is in insurance subrogation, payment processing, and debt collection. When you are in a tough industry like this one, you need people who have the ability to meet a challenge. We train our team with the best technology and processes, but what makes them truly great is that they are up to the task. They want to help make our company all that it can be.

From “Just Another Company” to “Decisions I’m Glad I Made”

Are we truly doing things different? Are we the best decision you could make? It’s easy for us to say “Yes” to a question like that, because we see things from our perspective. If we’re honest (which we are), we can’t say that every single person who’s ever worked here has found it to be one of the most rewarding experiences of their lives. We can, however, say that we've wanted it to be. When people start work at Viking Client Services, we know that they are joining a team that's redefining our industry. 

We want our employees to contribute to our workplace with more than just showing up. We want to hear their good ideas and innovations. We want them to feel like they have a voice. They are the hands and feet of our company, and they know what works and what doesn't. We let them take part in building our culture, our processes, and our community. And we give them credit when their good ideas make our company better. 

So if you’re wondering if Viking Client Services is a place that’s different, there’s really only one way to know. Experience it. We’ll be happy to help you discover how Viking is committed to people and committed to good.
