Pros

Excellent benefits and retirement for anyone who sticks it out for 30 years. Railroads promote from within at least to the middle level management positions. The work is never boring and requires a broad knowledge of data and telecommunications protocols. Field technicians cover large geographical territories and work with very little supervision.

Cons

In recent years using gps tracking there has been a tendency to micro manage the field forces.

Pros

Fair minded and supportive management. Not directly involved in RR management, so did not have the same hours or demands as many do.

Cons

None really--large publicly held company. Working on a contract basis, so can't speak to benefits.
