Pros

I enjoyed to mental aspect of the work

Cons

There are absurd rules that those in management must follow or they are bullied into quitting, even if those rules aren't entirely ethical. this company was a joy to work for when I originally was hired on. However, when the precision railroading contingent came into power, things changed. It became more about money being earned for absent shareholders than customer service and employee safety. They are running this company into the ground.

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.

Pros

Simple business model which is dependent on customer service.

Cons

Board is run by an Activist Investor. Company officers for the past 10 year have been bleeding off company assets and reducing operational capabilities in exchange for short term valuations. Many of these senior leaders were brought in with documented history of sexual misconduct and questionable corporate ethics. Their only qualification they need is that they were former managers under the Hunter Harrison regime at Canadian National.
