Pros

Great men to work with on or around the trains. The pay isn't what you'd want it to be but does take of what you need it to so long as you remain working. No matter your background and views, as long as you know your business (work) you'll be good amongst your co-workers.

Cons

The worst management there is to mankind. Extremely racist without the bluntness of it. They are more engaged in setting you up to fire or suspend you than actually doing what it is necessary in running the company as it should be. There was one guy who was superintendent. He went from that to a Trainmaster then to Yardmaster. He's super terrible even at that job. If management has a vendetta against you, they'll do anything and everything, even illegal things, to ensure you no longer work there. The work environment and conditions force you to worry more about engaging with management than to focus on your duties.

Pros

Benefits are decent. Pay is above average,

Cons

There are quite a few negatives that have happened at csx in the last few decades. Management has changed from a culture of working with people to a structure of trying to force their will at every turn. There is near zero employee engagement at any level of the structure these days. People once went above and beyond. There are only three ways to motivate any employee in any job. Pay. Time. Opportunity. The pay is decent but if you are a union employee, they refuse to collow their agreements. Time was one of the only motivators we had. They'd let you leave early if you got your work finished. Now? No leaving early and no time off. We are threatened weekly with a new notice or mailing to our homes about taking any time off. And opportunities have disappeared as the hedge fund cut and cut and cut.
