- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Culture and people, ethics, work environment
Cons
None that I can think of
- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Pros
There really are none anymore.
Cons
Terrible work schedules or lack there of. They don't pay claims they have signed and agreed to pay the employees. Layoffs constantly. No job security. The average life expectancy is very low from the long hours and no sleep. They treat their employees like they are in a nazi war camp. The harrassment is unbelievable. You can never take a day off or they fire you. Dreadful company to work for and just gets worse every year.
- Current Employee★★★★★
Pros
Godd to work for this thing
Cons
Management needs to be improved
- Current Employee★★★★★
Current Employee: I have been working at Prokarma full-time for more than 3 years
26 Oct 2020 - Software EngineerRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Can gain good technical knowledge. Friendly environment
Cons
No cons for me. Management is very good.
- Current Employee, more than 8 years★★★★★
Good pay, but that's it...
13 Mar 2023 - Railroad Freight Conductor in Kansas City, MORecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Pay, for one, highest paying job I've had yet. Health insurance is decent, yet has gotten worse over the years. But if you've had other employer offered insurance, you'll see it's considerably lower premiums.
Cons
Where do I start? 24/7 on call, train "schedule" inaccuracies constantly, which means you don't know when you'll go to work, no personal life, even tho they claim to be a family oriented company. Management is less than desirable. PSR ( precision scheduled railroading) ...worst idea ever, the idea of saving money, NOT making money by gaining customers, is their #1 priority. Cutting jobs, equipment and track maintenance has fallen to the wayside. No one around to fix anything anymore.

Pros
Home every night isn’t a bad thibg
Cons
Management is a hassle sometimes
- Current Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Good pay horrible life.
29 Mar 2023 - Railroad Conductor in Saint Louis, MORecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
The pay and benefits are better than most.
Cons
The time away from home can be multiple days and home time can be as little as 10 hours from time off duty until next call.
- Former Employee, more than 10 years★★★★★
Large Layoffs = Do More with Less
14 Mar 2023 - HR Manager in Omaha, NERecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Some of the people there are great. Good bonus structure if you start out good. If you have one bad year you pay for it the following years. I received pension which was amazing. Unfortunately, the pension is no longer offer to new hires. If you don’t make anyone mad and work hard you can move up fast.
Cons
Work is spread thin. Most people do not like their job or the Sr staff. Turnover has increased. The landscape of the departments is different. A lot of people are new at the entry and mid level.
