Pros

Railroad retirement is the best benefit of staying with any railroad, but this is not exclusive to Union Pacific. Processes and training are top notch if they are allowed to be used. Executives are focused on pleasing the shareholders at the detriment to the company.

Cons

The executive team is failing all employees of this company. The are focused on making the rich even richer. Record profits quarter after quarter, year after year are the only thing that matter. Why eliminate 10 people who do the work to pay for a new COO? Lance Fritz is on the verge of destroying one of the most historic companies in the country.
