Decent small division

Pros

Good culture, people are helpful, doesn't foster resentment. Benefits are decent. I would feel good going back there. Pay is competitive.

Cons

Communication from upper management leaves a lot to be desired. Process sometimes gets circumvented to get results. Nothing too special. It is just a job.

Wabtec Analysis

Pros

typical large corporation benefits are in a surplus and policies support design development. opportunities exist to move from division to division

Cons

career opportunities and developmental growth opportunities are a minimum; the growth of the stock price is the most important goal for the company; research/development and capital development is verbally supported at a corporate level but individual divisions are forced to focus on such immediate returns that best design solutions are never researched and usually lost.

Pros

Benefits, great team members, semi-flexible schedules, not a lot of weekend work.

Cons

No Bereavement (must take PTO), No raises over 5% for a given year (don't expect to even get 5 %, Old Xorail would pay their employees a competitive wage, Wabtec policies prevent competitive wages, basically the longer you stay the less money you will make as compared to outside of the company for the same position)
