CSX Conductor/Engineer reviews

Work schedule is horrible. Economy is slow right now for the rail road. A lot of great people were furloughed and have no idea when they will be called back to work. With the economy so slow right now, the company is looking to fire anyone and everyone. You never feel that you or your job is safe.

Have claims in dispute for years. Labor relations declines pay claims for jobs worked and money owed. If you are assigned to a job, pay is no big deal. If you are on a road extraboard, forget about it. They cheat you every chance they get, and if they claim they should not have paid you for a claim it comes out of your check $250 a paycheck. A trip rate of 300 miles is declined and you are paid 130 because your on an extra board, essentially losing $260 each trip. But you moved the train from point A to point B doesn't matter. You have to fight tooth and nail for what is owed to you, and it stays in dispute for years with no interest. Got paid a $200 claim in March 2016 for a dispute from February 2014, of course with 0 interest. We have 14 people furloughed right now and they are hiring 6 more. People on furlough have been there over a year. Installing inward facing cameras in locomotives to spy on you so you sit there with a camera staring you right in the face for 12 hours which can be monitored 24/7 live feed.
