Pros

Good health care benefit package.

Cons

Leaving has been a very good decision. Toxic practices are allowed and actively praised. You are praised more for speed that doing a safety critical job properly. The phrase 'just get it done' is congratulated. Safety comes second, be it personal or train. If you raise a problem, you are seen as the problem. Your face needs to fit. Toxic people have been placed into management positions. Things like train movements are seen as a lower class, despite how dangerous it can be. The rule book doesn't seem to apply to these people.

Pros

Great manager, hybrid work, flexibly if you work hard, good benefits, lots of growth. The culture is fantastic.

Cons

Lot of restructuring, needs a directory of who manages what, titles are vague and don't reflect what you actually do but everyone is super nice.

Pros

People tend to help one another

Cons

Pay is terrible compared to industry standards, no bonus/stock option, and upper management has been micro-managing the department for over a year as of 2025.
