Pros

New and exciting technologies for trains.

Great co-workers and a 100+ year history of engineering and manufacturing in Erie, PA.

Cons

Old plant, old offices, and crowded work environments. The movement of the headquarters to Chicago, and the recent layoff announcement in Erie, after opening a new manufacturing facility in Fort Worth. The current atmosphere in Engineering is negative.

Advice to Management

There needs to be more communication between management and employees.

Many recent events (management's move to Chicago, new manufacturing in Fort Worth, and pending layoffs) have us confused over the future of engineering and manufacturing in Erie, PA.
