Pros

Good pay, that is all.

Cons

No new contract and the company wants 1 man crews. Since this new CEO has taken over, BNSF has become a miserable place to work. Record Profits and she wants to get rid of a majority of the workforce. BNSF makes it impossible to have a family life. Point system for days off and they make up their own holidays to charge more points for time off. They know employees can't strike so they treat them with no respect. This company is run by managers with no hands on experience and they will spend a dollar to make a dime then blame the labor.

Pros

This is a great place to start and grow your career, especially as an MT, with tons of opportunities to take on projects and explore what interests you. Leadership at every level is genuinely supportive and approachable, and people across the company are always willing to teach, mentor, and help you succeed. Compensation and benefits are competitive, and the Business Resource Groups really add to the sense of community and development.

Cons

There are so many opportunities that it can sometimes feel a little overwhelming figuring out what path to focus on. Balancing day-to-day work with all the development options can be a bit challenging depending on your role and workload.

Pros

- Good pay - Remote work is nice

Cons

Terrible management, at least for my team I have possibly one of the worse, disorganized, and rudest manager. He's not only like this towards me but several others. I'm sure I got very unlucky and placed in a bad team but I also have not been enjoying the projects I have been given.
