Pros

This was the worst company I have ever worked for, there was only one good manager out of a host of 15. The staff and management are terrible.

Cons

There is zero concept of work/life balance at this company. The nepotism runs deep and the people are some of the worst humans I have ever interacted with, let alone had to figure out how to work with.

Pros

Some of the people are nice. You can easily see the fruits of your work. You get a rail pass for you and your legal dependents to ride the train for free or reduced prices.

Cons

Their work from home policy is a joke. it varies from dept to dept. So if your management structure loves coming into the office.. you will be forced to come in too for no reason at all... while other depts rarely come in or not at all. its applied unevenly. Every department seems to work in disorganization and chaos. Some times there's no rhyme or reason to what they do. Training is all but non existent. 5% of your salary will go to railroad retirement...in addition to any money to allot for 401K
