Working at New York Air Brake in Irving, TX: 2 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Irving, TX Area

"I have worked for NYAB- Train Dynamics Division since 2009. It is a company that started small with less than 20 employees, and had 31 when I hired in.There was a mind set when I first started, that made you want to work for the company and be a part of the team. What was lacking, and still is lacking, is leadership and vision.No employee retention efforts, no clear and concise instructions, no reward system, no effort to address the lack of leadership. I would not recommend NYAB-TDS"

"Reasonably good place to work."

What do you like about working at New York Air Brake?

"Somewhat flexible schedule partially makes up for long commute. Supervisor is pleasant. They make some effort to keep a good working environment."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Beware that HR is no local, and the hiring process may take a long time. From my first interview to the offer was 3 months."

What don't you like about working at New York Air Brake?

"Long commute. Company is going through ISO 9001 audits, and they are in denial about how much impact that has on productivity. Procedures are slow and cumbersome, and currently in a state of flux. Cubicle farm is somewhat noisy at times. It often takes several days to get hardware or software items I need to do an assigned task."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"When you promise a fitness facility for the employees, try to get it done in less than a year. You overload your PMs. You need to realize that a major change in process like CMMI or ISO9001 *will* seriously impact productivity."
