          Overworked and underpaid

          Rail Traffic Controller (Train Dispatcher)
          Current Employee, more than 10 years
          Minneapolis, MN
          Recommend
          CEO Approval
          Business Outlook

          Pros

          Railroad retirement, good medical, decent coworkers, fun job when territories are not combined to the point of being unmanageable.

          Cons

          One of the lowest paid class 1 railroads in a city with a high cost of living. Unprofessional upper management that believes yelling and screaming is the best way to improve employee productivity. Constantly understaffed because we cannot retain employees. Poor morale in all departments.

        Underwriter

        During my interview with a Vice President, he mentioned that the "background check" had been reviewed. He brought up cities I had lived in at one point, even though I hadn't included that information on my resume or LinkedIn profile, though it is accurate. Additionally, he was aware of my entrepreneurship experience, which I had not disclosed anywhere. I'm curious about the source of this information. I'm currently progressing through the interview rounds without any offer or signed documents.

        Underwriter

        I’m moving on to round 3 of the interview process after speaking with the VP and it’ll be with peers. My position would be Insurance Product Manager so the peers would be internal stakeholders (Sales, Engineering, Underwriting, Actuary, etc.) What kind of questions typically do peer interviews ask?

        I have an interview tomorrow for a position as a Fundraiser Specialist for a company that raises funds for children. Any insight or advice to give? I do not have any experience working in fundraising but have worked in sales and have worked in childcare for several years. Thank you!
