Pros
Great benefits - caveat - now being removed.
Cons
People have been promoted to management from the ranks for the most part and continue to pay their union dues in case they get fired as a manager, and so they do not manage. Antiquated, kept in the past, new ideas are not particularly welcomed, "this is how we've always done it" is the # 1 phrase. The benefits which kept people here are being taken away and as such anyone coming in the door or who have come in the last five years have no reason to stay as they aren't paid market wages. Check the case law if you want to see how adept Amtrak is at violating EEO laws.
