Pros

There may be a halo effect from a long time ago back when UP was a good company to work for.

Cons

Layoffs. UP upper management likes to fire people to appeal to Wall street. Middle management takes care.of their buddies. Good workers get treated very poorly. Management is extremely vindictive and retaliatory. Toxic work environment. Lots of backstabbing. If you are picky enough to keep your job then plan on lots of stress as you deal with the politics. This is such an awful place to work that UP quit publishing their internal work reviews because they know they suck and want to avoid acknowledging.
