Pros

The engineering department was full of great leaders with knowledge and humour! The schooling is not bad if you stick to the books a little bit every day during training week.

Cons

Work life balance can be hard at times, including working on the road during summer in production crews. Maintenance was gravy

Merci d'avoir pris le temps de partager votre avis. Nous sommes fiers d'offrir aux membres de notre équipe d'excellents avantages sociaux et rémunérations. Lorsque nous recrutons des talents, nous passons beaucoup de temps à expliquer les réalités associées à l'exploitation d'un chemin de fer 24 heures sur 24, 7 jours sur 7 et 365 jours par an, notamment comment le fait d'être de garde peut perturber votre vie de famille et des événements importants. Le CN ne pourrait pas fonctionner sans nos employés dévoués. Nous vous remercions pour votre travail assidu et pour votre contribution à l'avancement de notre compagnie et nous vous encourageons à nous faire part de votre avis sur la façon dont nous pouvons faire mieux lors de nos sondages réguliers Pulse.
