      Pros

      Pay can be good, benefits are better than a lot of private industry

      Cons

      Since the hedge fund take over the employee experience has really gone downhill. Staffing is incredibly short, and you'll be expected to make up for that. The pay may be good, but it often comes at the sacrifice of family and personal time. The days and hours blend together after a while, and weekends don't exist.

      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.
