Pros

great benefits, if you get a job with CSX in Jacksonville, then you'll love it

Cons

The training program hasn't been perfected so there's a lot of back and forth, so be prepared to change your plans daily and ignore any schedule given to you

Pros

Pay, benefits, education opportunity, diversity

Cons

If you retired after 2003, the company executives decided to stick our insurance premiums on our backs. They failed to tell us retiring boomers that once a $15,000 ceiling was crossed (per family) we'd carry the burden of our insurance cost. We were never told this during our retirement seminars. Even those who retired in the summer of 2011 were not told. Our insurance premiums increased by 94% for 2012. This had the effect of wiping out our management pensions. That's the appreciation we received for acheiving the position of management. Forty years as an employee and twenty as management. That's a big thanks. A multi billion dollar industry is just too cheap to help us for five years until we reach medicare age. CSX never adjusted the ceiling they set in 2003, how's that for planning?

Pros

Good pay for kids right out of school. If you have professional experience the job pay is okay. Good ability to advance if people actually retire

Cons

You will work well over 60 hr weeks and will be judged poorly if you leave early. You get talked to like you are a Marine private by some of the management
