$$$

For any new employee, we expect there will be a learning curve. During this time, your wage will be from the range below commensurate with your background and experience.

After about 6 months to 2 years, your wage will be based on your overall performance at ORX. Your education is a background that will enable you to perform, but it is not a ticket to high pay. Can you use what you've learned ? That's what we need. That's performance. We reward great performance with a salary well above industry norms.

ORX

Our company was founded in 1979. Since then, we have experienced steady growth. There are currently approximately 60 total employees, including 20 office workers. We manufacture and maintain wheel set assemblies, axles, trucks and related components for all types of rail vehicles. If you've ridden the subway in New York City, or taken the train in Atlanta, New Jersey, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, or Miami, or ridden on Amtrak's Acela High Speed train, you have probably ridden on wheel sets that came from our shop.

THE END

If you've read this far, that's good. Our company is looking for top-notch people --- highly talented, hard-working, conscientious. We are looking for great talent, attitude and motivation above pure experience. You must have the ability to learn quickly and be willing to learn new things or new ways of doing things you think you already know how to do. Attitude and aptitude made ORX the success it is today. If you have that to offer, you're a candidate for ORX.
