Pros

Amtrak salary is really good but you have to be willing to accept that management does not really give a crap about their employees.

Cons

The only way to obtain employment with AMTRAK is by who you know. Management promotion decisions are based on if they like you are not. It is definitely not based on your good work ethics. Working at AMTRAK is very political.
