      Opportunities are good, People are slow & inefficient, Organizational Structure is top-heavy

      Pros

      Free train travel, especially in the north-east is a huge plus.

      Cons

      People and processes are inefficient and slow. Very little accountability. Way too many managers, directors, business heads, etc. and very few work horses to do the grunt of the work. Growth is based on others retiring or quitting and rarely on personal strength. Thereby, people in leadership are in high positions because of lack of choice rather than personal strength.
