Smart coworkers; poor leadership. - Anonymous employee Railinc Employee Review

Thanks for your review and for your kind words about the people working at Railinc. I am concerned however, about your other comments. It’s not clear exactly what you are referring to, but you should know that every Railinc employee has multiple channels for expressing their concerns about any aspect of the company - regardless of whether it’s a strategic initiative, budgeting matter, personnel issue or other concern. If you do not feel comfortable speaking with your manager, then the HR department, any company director or senior executive (including the CEO) is happy and willing to speak with you, even on a confidential basis if desired. If there is a major concern, then Railinc’s internal audit department has a direct line to the Railinc Board of Directors. That said, while reasonable people may not always agree on process or approach, it is important to note that Railinc is a well-run and highly effective organization, staffed by competent and trained professionals at every level. The leadership team manages the business with complete financial transparency to the Railinc Board. This includes review and approvals for industry technology projects and strategic business initiatives; detailed budget approval processes and rigorous reviews of yearly financial performance; and detailed audits of every project and system in the company. If you want or need more information to fully understand any initiative in the company, including the financials; or if you just want to vent about your observations, then I encourage you to seek out other leaders in the company who are more than willing to work with you on either front. Thanks again for taking time to write. Be assured your message has been shared with the Railinc executive team.
