Thank you for your feedback and for your hard work. With a 24/7/365 operation CN could not function without its dedicated employees. We thank you for helping move our business and the economy forward. Please share your thoughts during our pulse and Interaction surveys.

Thank you for your feedback and for your hard work. We pride ourselves on providing our team members with great benefits and pay. When we recruit talent to our teams we spend a lot of time going over the realities associated with the railroad operating 24/7/365 days a year, including how being on call can disrupt your family life and important events. We thank you for having helped move our business and the economy forward and hope you shared your thoughts during your exit interview.

Pros

The pay is great after a few years

Cons

You have no life! Must be within 2 hours of site always because you will get called every day in busy seasons. You have 10 days off you can take per year, managers constantly trying to find reasons to fire you once you have completed training and senior managers talk to you disrespectfully.
