Pros

if you stay available for work you can make a lot on money. it is a lot of hurry up and wait.

Cons

the management is in the bushes waiting to fire you. there are new managers that dont know anything trying to tell you how to do your job.

Pros

There are several pros working for Union Pacific. Pros are the pay, union membership, and opportunities to travel

Cons

Cons are also Travel. The shift I am on you are supposed to be gone for eight d ays and home for six. But it actually translates into gone for 9 1/2 days by the time you include your travel days which put you only home for 4 to 4 1/2 days every 14 days.
