Pros

Pay was there. Time away from the office was nice.

Cons

Management is negatively biased toward their people. Nasty pride that doesn't allow you to enjoy life. They feel you owe them and they are beyond reproach. The culture invades your home life. Management doesn't follow their own policies. They have contributed to the destruction of my life and family. Benefits are mediocre at best.

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.
