      Pros

      There's plenty of jobs to apply for. Work-life balance is good for the office type jobs. Comp and benefits are good.

      Cons

      Not so much diversity in the workplace. Its a glass ceiling for minority women regarding promotions. The promotions are based on who you know, if they like you, and whether you fit the corporate color. They encourage you to speak up but concerns or issues but be prepare see that your career is at a halt. Bad behaviors are rewarded. Inconsistent performance management. I've been in both union and management positions. If it was up to me, I rather work in a union position that makes more money than managers and less of the bureaucracy.

      Pros

      I worked for another Fortune 500 company for 12 years prior to working at CSX. My best day there is my worst day at CSX. CSX takes stock in their employees empowering them to work towards any professional goal they might aspire to reach.

      Cons

      Nothing significant to mention here.

CSX provides excellent training and support to further your knowledge base and prepare you for future responsibilities and compensation. The culture is excellent for anyone wanting to advance in their careers. Excellent benefits and reward/recognition programs as well as advancement opportunities. Salaries are very competitive with other similar industries. The five core values of the company are taken seriously and our reputation is impeccable. The executive team provides innovative leadership. Communications are timely and transparent. You control your future by participating in training and desire to do a good job. CSX, a great place to work and grow.

      Cons

      Cons are very few. As with any large corporation, there is a bureaucracy. This is softened by the quick response to needs by the differing departments.
