Pros

The field level people are great to work with...

Cons

Management can’t make decisions, everything is micromanaged from the VPs. Yet the real problems are hidden from them resulting in a completely mismanaged company.

Pros

Free train travel anywhere in the country.

Cons

I worked in the Boston Southampton Yard as a Locomotive Inspector. Management was constantly bullying employees and disregarding union contracts. The superintendent and assistant superintendent were incompett individuals and the cause of many, many resignations. Why these managers are still in charge remains a mystery.
