Pros

Good People Part of a Union With Medical And Dental as well as Vision, Pay is Good if you have enough seniority to hold a job or stay on the Extra board

Cons

Irregular work hours no set days off unless you can hold a regular job all the old heads are retired so seniority is slow building

Pros

Great job with excellent pay and benefits. No experience or education and I make more than any of my friends that have a degree. Work outside and get to travel.

Cons

Paying over a hundred dollars a month for some guy who don't even work to make six figures a year to "run" the union. Oh, and they mail you your contract the company offers as well. The coworkers are the worst. I have been here for 6 years and people cry constantly. You have guys that abuse FMLA so a guy can never take his time off but will cry like hell the second they get ran around. My biggest disgust was the ingrate people that shouldn't even have the job boxing the whole craft into a corner and voting down an offer for $42.50 an hour, days off, and furlough protection just because they don't like management. Yet not a single nay sayer has the guts to step up and be management! I have never worked with such idiotic and ungrateful people.

Pros

Trains. Tracks. History. Can't think of anything else positive to say about this company.

Cons

Working under Hunter Harrison was a nightmare. Terrible senior management, no respect for anyone. An culture of fear and layoffs. Run by the highest paid CEO in Canadian history from a horse ranch in Florida. A horrible new corporate headquarters where management is segregated. Really ugly stuff.
