      Pros

      Great pay and good benefits. Was a very interesting job in the fact that you drive trains. Got to enjoy the outdoors

      Cons

      Horrible management. Once they hire you, they try to fire you by constantly hiding in the bushes (literally) to find you breaking one of the 300+ rules. Often denying valid claims for pay.

      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.
