Pros

Benefits are good and experience of other people in other departments help learning about TTX helps. The people overall are great to work with and there are enough events to attend outside of work like the Corporate Challenge.

Cons

The IT department does not know what it's doing and the IT management looks like it doesn't know what it's doing. There are always reorganizations in the IT department without much traction or results. The department is a joke in the company. IT is a very stressful place to work at TTX and morale is always low.

Pros

TBD this is all very new

Cons

None so far, everyone is polite. If you have to throw rocks, rail equipment does not go into a shop / under a roof much. You better be able to tolerate a bit of weather. Not so much a con as a fact.

Pros

Good health benefits. Thats all.

Cons

Working at TTX has shown me the importance of strong leadership and proper operational support. Unfortunately, the current management structure often sets teams up for failure by expecting high production numbers while operating with low manpower and limited resources. There is a strong focus on micromanagement rather than leadership, development, and teamwork. Supervisors and specialists are frequently talked down to instead of being supported and guided. Communication from upper management often lacks clear direction, practical solutions, and hands-on assistance when challenges arise. Safety is continuously emphasized, which is absolutely important in the railroad industry. However, new safety precautions and procedures are constantly added without aligning expectations, staffing, or production goals realistically. This creates a disconnect between operational demands and what can safely and effectively be accomplished by the workforce. The employees on the ground work hard every day and deserve better support, stronger leadership, realistic expectations, and a management approach focused on collaboration instead of pressure.
