Pros

You're working for the "core" of the industry, which means you're on the inside looking out.

Cons

Network Rail is based on the HR set-up of Railtrack, which was only supposed to have its own staff and then a workforce of contracted out staff. Now it's all in-house, Network Rail HR just don't have a clue as to how to deal with a full company of staff.
