Pros

The team in which you might work with might be as awesome as mine was.

Cons

Management typically lacks technical background to fill the roles to which they hold. Several are in place as political fills rather than true leaders in either personal or technical support.

Pros

Came to Rail from another division in the county, so much better than certain customer facing divisions. Work like balance and hybrid model are great. Lots of room for advancement in the admin world if you want it.

Cons

Can feel like you’re being micro managed or watched from the top at times but middle management is usually good at mitigating this.
