      Pros

      lots of overtime so there is money to be made. They have retirement for your spouse, but you have to be able to keep a spouse with the overtime.

      Cons

      lots of overtime so you have no life. You get paid by trip rate but they expect you to work 9.5 hours. So the trip rate divided by the amount of hours you get your hourly wage.

      Pros

      Simple business model which is dependent on customer service.

      Cons

      Board is run by an Activist Investor. Company officers for the past 10 year have been bleeding off company assets and reducing operational capabilities in exchange for short term valuations. Many of these senior leaders were brought in with documented history of sexual misconduct and questionable corporate ethics. Their only qualification they need is that they were former managers under the Hunter Harrison regime at Canadian National.
