Pros

Good pay, benefits, etc. Opportunity for training, use of govt vehicles, bus pass, normal hours. Coffee shop in the building, paid parking after hours, green building, healthy incentives.

Cons

Bureaucracy, lots of jumping through hoops. Hurry up and wait. Lots of disorganization, turnover, union negotiations, strange management tactics and lack of direction.

Pros

Came to Rail from another division in the county, so much better than certain customer facing divisions. Work like balance and hybrid model are great. Lots of room for advancement in the admin world if you want it.

Cons

Can feel like you’re being micro managed or watched from the top at times but middle management is usually good at mitigating this.
