Pros

Great Pay, Good Healthcare, Railroad Retirement could be helpful but you have to work at railroads and never leave.

Cons

You will not have any worklife balance. The expecation is to work nights and weekends well over 50 to 60 hours a week. Layoffs happen all of the time. You will always have the fear you will be apart of the next round. Recently they have started cutting benefits. They stopped work hybrid work, they cut a wellness reward which basically lowered everyones salary by $600, cut the student loan repayment.
