Union Pacific reviews

The resounding theme in most of the reviews are the same "they don't care about there employees" "we're just a number" "they're constantly trying to fire us"....it's all true! When I started working for up I LOVED my job! It actually took several years for me to come to despise it. And now it has gotten even worse with all departments being "standardized" which has finally amounted to a sickening amount of micromanagement! Even going as far as to put the mechanical department under the same stone age attendance policy as their transportation department. So now they are out to fire ALL of us, not just the yard and road guys. They move foreman that are bullies into positions for just that reason, they are bullies! That came straight from a managers mouth! The stress from all their bs is unbelievable and they're to ignorant to realize that it is a major cause of "mental vacations". They are to large and rich to be reasoned with. They sent out the cutest letter telling us in essence they want "us" to take one for the team, for the shareholders. Sounds reasonable, as long as the guys on top are giving up some of their own salaries "for the shareholders" as well.

Managers, schedules, work to life balance
