CARSMAN (Former Employee), Stockton, CA – April 29, 2012
Pros: great people
Cons: nice work place
I am currently a car repair man, I rebuild and service railroad freight cars in accordance with FRA regulations, AAR rules, and company policies. This is accomplished through the use of hand tools, power tools, cutting torches and welding equipment. Work is of a physical nature and requires kneeling, bending, and/or standing at height at up to 20 feet, – more... walking long distances over uneven terrain, heavy lifting, pushing/pulling objects weighing between 25 lbs. to 50 lbs., occasionally lifting up to 86 lbs with assistance and getting on and off equipment. – less
Long tough days. Much information to learn. Mgmt is good to work with but can be extremely difficult.. Co-workers are great to work with and they make sure that you work safe as well as other interest. Can require much travel..The benefit package is great for an employee.
