Pros

All the grand promises and because you made the mistake of already hiring years ago.

Cons

Furlough, driving endless hours unpaid, sleeping in your car, unsafe working conditions, unsafe living conditions, no family life or quality of life, low pay, having to fight for every single thing you're promised, hostile work environment, say goodbye to good physical health.

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.
