Pros

none i can assure you of this

Cons

young people. the ceo here has like a 8% approval rating. seriously? move on. this is by far the most unethical company i ever worked at. managers regularly asking you to "drag out" trains to make them go by a "first os " point so the computer system thinks they left on time. however, then they make you shove back or reverse the train and put in back into the yard for later. cooking the books on the regular. i am ashamed i worked for this company but it isn't too late for me to warn other young people in this country. please after you get your college education look elsewhere. if you never listen to anything anyone tells you again do that.

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.
