Pros

Great men to work with on or around the trains. The pay isn't what you'd want it to be but does take of what you need it to so long as you remain working. No matter your background and views, as long as you know your business (work) you'll be good amongst your co-workers.

Cons

The worst management there is to mankind. Extremely racist without the bluntness of it. They are more engaged in setting you up to fire or suspend you than actually doing what it is necessary in running the company as it should be. There was one guy who was superintendent. He went from that to a Trainmaster then to Yardmaster. He's super terrible even at that job. If management has a vendetta against you, they'll do anything and everything, even illegal things, to ensure you no longer work there. The work environment and conditions force you to worry more about engaging with management than to focus on your duties.

Pros

Simple business model which is dependent on customer service.

Cons

Board is run by an Activist Investor. Company officers for the past 10 year have been bleeding off company assets and reducing operational capabilities in exchange for short term valuations. Many of these senior leaders were brought in with documented history of sexual misconduct and questionable corporate ethics. Their only qualification they need is that they were former managers under the Hunter Harrison regime at Canadian National.
