No upper mobility

Pros

Benefits are adequate but not great.

Cons

They rarely promote from within. They require degrees for Director and Management positions but there are people without even an Associate's as Managers (and with no RR experience) because they are a friend of a VP, etc. If you are good at something they will not promote, they will just add an additional responsibility with no pay raise. If you are a minority your chances of moving up are even less.

Poor place to work.

Pros

The pay is really good for no college degree. All the overtime you could ever want. Good experience in a very old profession.

Cons

Treated poorly, always short staffed, management rules by threatening people's jobs for simple mistakes. Forced to overtime weather it is wanted or not. 16 hour shifts due to short staff.

Pros

Pay is good and the Union brothers are great to work with that's about it I'm not sure if it's worth anymore

Cons

It's like being at a concentration camp for 8 to 16 hours a day breaks are not allowed anymore not nearly enough people to keep up with the work load
