Pros

Medical and Dental copay benefits are ok since they are apart of a large union because of mandatory SFO airport and San Francisco policy. Once fully trained plenty of overtime.

Cons

High turnover for mechanics. Union shop but Alstom transportation mechanics do not get a union pension only a 'plain jane cookie cutter' corporate 401(k) contribution. Training to fix the passenger trains needs major improvement since the SFO passenger international loop passenger trains are 20 years old and constantly break down especially in rainy winter season. Hard to get weekends off for beginning workers after initial two week training period. New mechanics will typically work a Swing shift (or more than likely) a Graveyard shift due to union shop seniority policy. Weekends and major Holidays time off are for tenured mechanics with 5 plus years seniority.
