New York Air Brake Employee Job Reviews in the United States

"Good! No real upward mobility possibilities."

"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"
