Pros

May make a decent check You will have health insurance

Cons

No quality of life, you work long hours, being able hold a decent schedule takes a lot of years and a lot of seniority because jobs go up for bid every six months, I feels like it’s hard to get settled working for this company, they never do anything but scare employees poorly managed, dispatchers volate your hours of service at will it’s just a crappy toxic place at this point.

Pros

Great friends and Travel with plenty to see

Cons

The culture is horrible it’s a very demeaning please. They will fire you for anything. Harassment amongst employees and by management to their employees Is extremely high. I have a MBA degree and I still can not move above the customer service level. I’m a union member and you have to pay union dues to work a non management position. The union Reps work for Amtrak to so there is a conflict of interest. The union is TCU in which they defend the company 100x harder than they do their members. TCU is not organized very well. The pay is fairly well but after union dues in medical and taxes are withdrawn your net income makes it look like you are making at least 15 to 17 an hr. As far as Work culture at Amtrak it is fueled by many rumors and those rumors are more affluent then your resume .
