Pros

Pay is great, benefits is mediocre at best

Cons

Management, consistent lay-offs, the culture at work is the managers are the police looking for evidence against you to climb the corporate ladder and justify their jobs, consistently being away from home for days at a time, if you get hired here after 2015 be prepared to be laid off multiple times for at least the first 6 years of your career when carloadings tank (and they ALWAYS do)

Good pay and benefits. Work is challenging.

Weak lower and middle management - they only care about their own careers. Poor morale. UP went down hill after Jim Young passed away.
