Pros

A sense of pride for working at a company that has been around for 150 years and contributes so much to our country.

Cons

Current environment is toxic. Corporate greed is at a historical high with UP, at levels most likely never before seen in any industry. Closing rail yards, laying off employees, auctioning off equipment, you would think the company was going under. At the same time making record profits and enjoying 6 billion a year in corporate tax breaks....inexplicable.

Weak lower and middle management - they only care about their own careers. Poor morale. UP went down hill after Jim Young passed away.
