      Pros

      Unlimited vacation, 401k matching, global, a big company with opportunities to move around

      Cons

      Many smaller companies make up the parent company. Growth by acquisition is the overall strategy without much investment into building things internally.

      LEAD Engineering Program & Controls Engineering

      Electrical controls engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I completed Wabtec's LEAD Engineering program, and I believe it offered the best way to start a career in engineering. I worked for 4 different teams in the span of 2 years, and the broad exposure has set me up for success in my current full-time role as a electric traction controls engineer. Exposure to batteries, motors, simulation, and electrical diagrams has laid the perfect foundation for a role in electric traction control. I am given responsibilities beyond my comfort level, which encourages me to learn and expand my abilities. I am continuously learning from my mistakes. Every day at work, I feel the desire to improve, which benefits my career and my personal life.

      Cons

      The portion of Wabtec that I work in was formerly GE Transportation (GET), which has a long and deep history in the locomotive industry. The former GET component of the business continues to mesh with the rest of Wabtec, and it feels like the traditional methods of GET are not flexible. They work perfectly for traditional GET work, but they are confusing and complicated for non-traditional work that comes along from the GET-Wabtec merger.
