Pros

Benefits of retirement if able to make it that far in new regime's plan. There are still a lot of good people working for the company but they seem to be disappearing at alarming rates as those in charge don't care about covering anyone's job but their own

Cons

Management cares only about covering their own tails, even at the expense of lower tiered managers. There is no accountability among those managers as they continue to implement various changes that go against any and all collective bargaining agreements. There is no safety program as is evident by the constantly increasing injuries and accidents. They tell you to preach safety, just not on any call or meeting or anything else where employee engagements can be held. Safety is rules compliance yet they have removed or changed so many rules that were safety oriented. And lastly, again, upper management will never hold themselves accountable if they can throw any lower level manager under the train instead.

Pros

Simple business model which is dependent on customer service.

Cons

Board is run by an Activist Investor. Company officers for the past 10 year have been bleeding off company assets and reducing operational capabilities in exchange for short term valuations. Many of these senior leaders were brought in with documented history of sexual misconduct and questionable corporate ethics. Their only qualification they need is that they were former managers under the Hunter Harrison regime at Canadian National.
