Business outlook
Pros
The corporate benefits are great - if you have an office based job. If you are on shifts, then there are zero opportunities in general; there are pockets of good practice but it's a dreadful place. Can't drink, allocated your holidays, no social life - it's a prison sentence but take away the salary, pension contribution and free travel...you're trapped.
Cons
Head office staff - arrogant and ignorant. 90% of them don't actually know we run a train service as our primary business. Ask them for a report - weeks. Ask an operations manager to get a body from under a train or walk down dark tunnels on electrified track- minutes.
