Pros
If you can run on very little sleep and/or can fall asleep with no problems, this may be for you. Being on call 24/7 can be appealing to some. You get to meet a lot of railroad workers, and locations. Most of the guys are friendly and helpful.
Cons
There is NO health, dental insurance plans: it's only the bare- minimum so you can check the box on your taxes. Repeat-NO health insurance!!!!! Most of the vans are old and are needing some work. the headlights are fogged over and not very helpful when you need them. Also, the windshield wiper blades are in dire need of replacing. But was told "they only allow changing within a time frame" I guess it's too soon, regardless of their condition, there is chatter of the company being under new company....not sure when. We are already getting new vans, not really in rotation for use yet.You can't plan anything, as you may get called out.
