Pros

Pay, Pay, Pay, Pay, Pay

Cons

Does not listen to employees in the field. Health, benefits, etc. gradually get worse over the years. Attendance policy is the worst ever! No paid sick days. Does not match 401K. No respect for time off for anything.

Pros

There are several pros working for Union Pacific. Pros are the pay, union membership, and opportunities to travel

Cons

Cons are also Travel. The shift I am on you are supposed to be gone for eight d ays and home for six. But it actually translates into gone for 9 1/2 days by the time you include your travel days which put you only home for 4 to 4 1/2 days every 14 days.
