QUARTER CENTURY CLUB
CELEBRATING 25 YEARS AT S&C
Minh, who moved to Chicago 31 years ago, started degreasing machines and is now a machinist in the metal cutting and turning department. “I love my work,” says Minh, who graduated from Dawson Technical Institute in Chicago. He wants to thank S&C for the financial stability his job has provided to his family, including his wife and two daughters. “I would like to thank all Americans,” Minh says. “This is a land of opportunities that has helped me to improve my life.”
Minh loves to tend to his garden, watch the news, and listen to music when he is not working. To newcomers considering a career at S&C, he stresses the importance of working for a stable company that takes care of its team members. “S&C is a good company to work for,” Minh says. “You will have good benefits. Your life will be stable until retirement.” n

“I honestly said that I’m not looking right now, but I will come and talk to you,” says David. After his interview, David was hired as a senior test engineer for EnergyLine. When S&C bought EnergyLine, he remained with S&C in the same department as an electronic engineer. “I like that we are developing new products and designs, which fuels my creative side,” he says. Recently, David’s team developed the control board for S&C’s EdgeRestore® Underground Distribution Restoration System. Born in the Philippines, David moved to San Diego, California, as a baby when his father joined the U.S. Navy. He returned to the Philippines
when he was six and attended school there. After graduating with his bachelor’s degree in electronics and communications engineering, he moved back to California. He and his wife of 39 years, Reina, love to travel. He’s also a contemporary jazz music aficionado. David is grateful for the longevity of S&C, and for the stability it has offered his family over the years. “How many companies can you name that have a club for people who have stayed with the company for 25 years?” David says. n
David Munoz Staff Engineer Electronics Hardware David Munoz’s friend, who worked at EnergyLine Systems in Alameda, California, encouraged him to apply for a job there, so David followed his advice. Then, he waited. And waited. It was nearly two years before the company called and asked him to come in for an interview.
