Pros

Learn about trains, onsite doctor's office that is free for employees

Cons

Subjected to very graphic things and incidents of people choosing to end their life by train. Processes are outdated and there is an unwillingness for change and progress. Some of the supervisors we dealt with simply weren't cut out for management, and it impacted our team morale greatly. COVID was not taken seriously at the beginning, and the dept was very slow to transition to WFH. We were asked multiple times to come into work physically during the pandemic-- even though several team members were very uncomfortable with that. Worked more than half of my time there understaffed because employee after employee on my team would quit. Leadership will talk but refuse to walk that talk. Outward Mindset does not apply to them. Not a place to have any creativity or suggestions for new processes. If you keep your head down and do what they say, you will be great.

Undermanagement instead of micromanagement

Pros

The FRONT LINE teams and people are always willing to help out each other.

Cons

Management doesn't have clear goals or objectives which makes it challenging to become a great performer. There is not a way to measure whether you are doing well or not or how to improve if needing. Communication is lacking. Yearly performance evaluations are subjective, with no clear way for improvement detailed by managers. You're left to guess with little to no feedback if underperforming even when you ask. No purpose aligned or company goals established to work towards. Management is usually TOO BUSY to meet with their folks.
