Pros

Can't say that I have any - once I was hired as a full time employee my entire viewpoint of the company changed, and not for the better.

Cons

CSX has been in turmoil for the past several years. Employees are constantly worried about being on the chopping block. The only reason people stick around is to get railroad retirement. They feel stuck because that is hanging over their heads. Best advice I can give to anyone there is to look elsewhere before you're removed permanently. They keep saying they're "trimming the fat," but to be frank, the company is basically anorexic now. Customers aren't happy, employees are miserable, but shareholders are pleased that their wallets feel fatter!

Pros

Financial stability, great retirement. Great group of employees willing to sacrifice home time to see the company succeed. With less management everyday great opportunities for advancement very fast.

Cons

The intensity that is placed on ones shoulder is ridiculous so that 5 people couldn't do it. Time spent from home is almost 24/7. The company's direction is headed south on safety.
