Pros

Decent pay, decent benefits, 401k, decent retirement

Cons

Management can be very adversarial, they are always trying to cut jobs and employees, they will try to fire you for anything and everything, terrible attendance policy, most jobs are on call with no set schedule, you spend a lot of time away from home, plan on working most weekends and holidays, they have cameras all over the place and frequently use them to spy on and fire you.

Pros

Fair minded and supportive management. Not directly involved in RR management, so did not have the same hours or demands as many do.

Cons

None really--large publicly held company. Working on a contract basis, so can't speak to benefits.
