Pros

Pension and wages is the only thing that keeps us there

Cons

Management constantly looking for efficiency failures to give time off work. They never thank you and always look for a reason to try and fire you. The morale of all the employees is at an all time low. The management calls themselves leaders, but in reality they are just tyrants. New employees with less than a year are harassed with failures to give them 10 or 20 days off work. They are supposed to mentor and guide new employees but instead fail them and put them on edge. CP preaches safety but moving trains is more important. If you want to be in a perpetual state of sleep deprivation work here. They job itself and most people you work with is great. The management makes it a place that I would never recommend to anyone. When I hired on 400 people applied for the job, now they can barely get 5 to apply. That in itself tells you something about the place.

Pros

You get to work outside

Cons

Lack of training after reaching the field. Extremely toxic work environment. Very little clarity of when things should be done and who should do it (constant finger-pointing and playing the blame game). Managers are usually whoever puts their hands up and more often than not they're the worst at their jobs. Non-Unionized employees try to coerce unionized employees to break union rules. The constant pressure to break Transport Canada regulations for the benefit of the company. Nepotism runs deep within the company, which leads to hiring unqualified employees. Creel is not a good person.
