Westinghouse in Cranberry (Pittsburgh, Beaver, Blairsville: for sale, house, unemployed)

[bellamaxjoy]

Hello, I am throwing this out, hoping someone may be able to help. I was told that a month or so ago, the Post Gazette was running large ads on hiring for the Westinghouse plant in Cranberry. I am having a hard time finding anything, and thought I would post here and see if anyone can be of help.
I thank you in advance!!

At least two or three times a month there's a full page ad on hiring for Westinghouse. A friend of mine retired from there and he said they are already hiring for the Cranberry location. If you've got an engineering degree, you won't be unemployed for long! Three huge buildings totaling approximately 845,000 square feet.

Negative - Westinghouse in Pittsburgh is a design and support company - not a manufacturing company. They do have some machinists that maintain some equipment, but there are no manufacturing jobs in Pittsburgh because they simply don't manufacture any products in Pittsburgh.

They do have a nuclear fuel tube plant in Blairsville PA with some manufacturing jobs, but the rest of the fuel is made in Utah and South Carolina.

Westinghouse is doing phenomenal right now, profits are through the roof. I imagine they will be doing a healthy amount of hiring in the near future and continuing.

The manufacturing jobs moved out YEARS ago. My mom and cousin used to work in the Beaver plant (and I did for two summers).... good job with good pay, but no longer in this country.
