Pros

Great benefits, great pay, covers approximately 38 states with a relocation package. Its a self-contained company that offers plenty of room for a variety of career moves. Education plan with tuition assistance. You are eligible for 401K benefits from day one. Great health care plan.

Cons

Nepotism is terrible. If you are a transportation employee (I.e. conductor, engineer) the discipline is terrible. Promotion to management is given to a family member over the most qualified employee.

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.
