FreightCar America Employee

"I was hired before production ever started. FreightCar was an excellent company on paper. They made great promises and fished for employees. Many people left decent jobs to come there. They failed miserably with their follow up however, and their management was poor. I left because I didn't feel it was the best place for me to be at this point in my life."
