Pros

Decent pay and benefits, great coworkers, fun work, feel proud to work on the railroad

Cons

You can only get promoted based on who and not what you know, union is useless, horrible work/life balance, unorganized leadership, waste time trying to "coach/write-up" employees on how to do their job instead of helping them succeed
