VEGA is a privately owned German owned company that manufactures and sells great industrial instrumentation products. The marketing and technical support is top notch as is the training for new employees.
Cons
American-based (regional level) sales management tend to be comprised of career-climbing, sycophantic and opportunistic bone-heads very skilled at groveling to their betters. Always amusing to watch, I'll admit - but not good for your own career development.
