Pros

Good training opportunities and people.

Cons

Generally a bullying culture where staff want to show that their projects are working well. This, in some cases, leads to covering up or trying to make light of issues. In addition there is constant change, which is often not needed. This disturbing for staff.

Difficult to get things done quickly. Poor communication from Senior management, although I think the new CEO is pretty decent.Considerable uncertainty about the future of the Railway industry.
