Great pay, Great Benefits, Great Hours

Cons

If Your BLACK, they mostly will not hire you ... it will take you at least 3 to 4 Orientations to get hired, that's what EVER Black Worker for Union Pacific told me. Most Supervisors have Confederate stickers or plates on there vehicles

Pros

The absolute only reason someone should consider working at this dictatorship company is Railroad Retirement benefits. Working at the UP will certainly make you appreciate other companies that have a sincere appreciation for their employees.....unlike the UP’s management.

Cons

After 20+ years of working in this toxic armpit of a railroad, the list of ‘cons’ is far too long to list. The CEO, Fritz, is only out for himself. He’s paving the road to a political career after ruining one of the best railroads in the world. He’s a money & power hungry to an extreme. He has no respect for the boots on the ground employees who COULD make this company great.
