Vantaggi

Excellent pay and benefits. Opportunities for advancement within the company are readily available. Exciting and fast paced work environment. Very rewarding experience especially if you enjoy working with the public and helping people. Coworkers are for the most part great, and you really feel like you're part of a team. Great comradeship.

Svantaggi

Long hours, and depending on the job, lots of travel. Very hard to have a life outside of work. Can be very stressful. Also, a lot of jobs are on a "on call" basis meaning you don't have a regular schedule. Can be required to report for duty in as little as two hours from being called. Company is very top heavy management wise. Sometimes it seems like you have more "supervisors" than coworkers. Can be frustrating because a lot of the managers are poorly trained, and don't have any actual experience in the areas that they are managing.

Svantaggi

The culture is horrible it’s a very demeaning please. They will fire you for anything. Harassment amongst employees and by management to their employees Is extremely high. I have a MBA degree and I still can not move above the customer service level. I’m a union member and you have to pay union dues to work a non management position. The union Reps work for Amtrak to so there is a conflict of interest. The union is TCU in which they defend the company 100x harder than they do their members. TCU is not organized very well. The pay is fairly well but after union dues in medical and taxes are withdrawn your net income makes it look like you are making at least 15 to 17 an hr. As far as Work culture at Amtrak it is fueled by many rumors and those rumors are more affluent then your resume .
