Avantages

Good pay and benefits. Nice pension. The railroad is now a stable industry for the first time in decades. Also, lots of improvement to the track structure this year - better late than never!

Inconvénients

It takes years to acquire enough seniority to hold a regular job. But worst of all, labor-management relations are awful. CSXT was certainly too lenient in previous generations, but it is now overly strict, to the point of sheer lunacy. Managers are required to find fault and put employees into formal investigations over the smallest things, or they can forget about being promoted. I can't imagine how much money is lost because management is sucking the initiative out of good workers. The management training program turns bright young men into scared, arrogant fools. Lastly, positions are cut and rationalized before the technology to do so is perfected, often resulting in collisions, damage and injuries.

Avantages

Simple business model which is dependent on customer service.

Inconvénients

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.
