Pros

Pay is good. Benefits are good/ok.

Cons

Won’t be a good place at all to be employed once they kill the insurance from back years ago. Pay is best when you spend so much time away from home your family barely knows you. Management wont/can’t make decisions when needed on the local level. Too much time away from home for road crews. Yard crews have long hours and they wonder why people violate rules. Communication is ridiculous and basic which is a disaster for all the rules we are subjected to.
