Pros

Travel, benefits, and working with the public.

Cons

Any level of management stinks. They will pick at anything to try and fire you, making employee morale extremely low. Favoritism is clearly displayed with certain employees and management.

Pros

Great/ affordable medical benefits Exceptional pay Retirement and accrued vacation Paid training w/ no railroad experience required Really fun/interesting job!

Cons

Federally/state funded= red tape, bureaucracy Union- not well represented, hard to fire bad apples Local management/ central operating bends rules as suits them Away from home constantly Federal "rest" only requires company to give 8 hours off between jobs On call for years to start (24/6, sometimes 7) No incentive for going above and beyond Local management will not listen to your ideas (though most of them have little experience in our shoes)
