Pros

The travel benefits are amazing! All of the union employees are awesome! The younger leaders have a good grasp on how to lead and execute the company’s mission and vision. If you’re a “former” (train buff) working for the railroad is fantastic experience!

Cons

Top heavy Managment who feel compelled to be a part of every single decision being made on behave of a larger team. Unfortunately, mid-level employees do not have the opportunity or flexibility to perform one's job duties effectively.

Pros

Everyone is at Amtrak because they want to be there.

Cons

Amtrak will forever be limited, not by its decisions, but by those imposed upon it by Congress.
