      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great craft people, good pay.

      Cons

      Pressure from upper management that have no clue what it takes to get the work done. They pressure lower managers to get numbers that are not realistic and some fudge the numbers to meet these expectations.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      no expectation of high performance no education required, just coast until retirement, decent pay, some modest union protection, usually friendly co-workers, good job for RR fans, ideal employee was CPA, spent 2 years as conductor / railfan, then got real job with IRS, also retired marine, had military pension, fire proof, been to Afganistan, when higher management (no college, no military, nepotism, worthless) tried to bully him it failed. Military friendly company .

      Cons

      average pay considering hours, nepotism, tuition reimbursement effectively denied to field employees harsh attendance policy, declining health benefits and worthless dental, suggestions / improvements met with hostility, frequent layoffs and punishments, weird hours and schedules mean obesity, alcoholism, divorce are standard features, . lower management treated like dogs, and pass that on to troops. JAX culture and jobs totally different world, no field opportunities to help community, ,

      Pros

      Good pay, railroad retirement if you can make it to retire - good luck with the new CEO coming soon.

      Cons

      Like every other corporation-sacrifice your soul for profits. Long hours, stress from doing 2 people's jobs, insurance sucks, no life balance, and on and on.
