Business outlook
Pros
Competitive pay and benefits (railroad retirement is great if you see yourself retiring with the company), developmental opportunities, opportunities for entry level employees to gain valuable experience, up-to-date technology, most people (peers, not leaders) are good to work with
Cons
Lack of flexibility, top-heavy, poor culture, very political, must relocate to be promoted, instability (they are trying to manage headcount through attrition, but you always feel a dark cloud looming) and no backfilling due to cost cutting measures given the business environment in the railroad industry
