Union Pacific reviews

Management constantly looking for rules violations and loved to make students an example for the most frivolous stuff. I was written up for walking through a mud puddle and crossing the track incorrectly. I never even crossed the track. Another manager accused my foreman of me of not crossing track correctly even after he said he was to far away to really see us. Coworkers are interested in one thing, getting an early quit, meaning working 7 hours. If you are new and slower, which it to be expected, and you mess up their early quit you will catch holy hell. They will tell you different, but most do not mean it. Once past training, you never know when you are going to work and only get 1.5 hours notice to report. Limits where you can go and what you can do. Married to your cell phone and it better get 100% coverage or you will get written up for that. Dispatch "lost" me and several other students in Cheyenne and had to spend multiple days without any pay even after calling dispatch center. North Platte yard huge and hard to learn where everything is, all the different radio channels, and rules are different in some parts of the yard.

The values of the company have shifted from employee & customer focused to shareholder.
