The company on the inside has been falling apart for quite some time now. PSR, stock buybacks, and other things have continuously inflated the stock price of a poorly run company. How can you have future growth when you have fees that make OTR trucking a much better option. How can you have any growth when you have 30,000+ employees that don’t trust the company? There’s an old saying that says you have to spend money to make money. If the UP wants to grow, then they’re going to have to spend the money for equipment and personnel. Remember when the CEO said that PSR was to make the company more competitive? If this executive team doesn’t WAKE UP, the competition will too far ahead for the UP to catch up.

(post @edj+1acUMOY4, thread +1acUMOY4) I agree with every word. I personally do not believe in the growth of this company, but I am sure that the competition will get far ahead, if it has not already.

They are in it for “now.” Not later! Strip-mining.
UPRR will sell out completely if it pays good enough. Our execs and the hedge fund don’t care about long term prospects at all.
The UP is only interested in downsizing.
No. They want to push the stock price higher. If that means making the company half the size it was five years ago that is what they will do.
Lischer can still swallow the jumbo UP hot dogs.
Only thing growing at up is the debt.
Only Interested in stock price valuation and dividends. This has been said many times in here.
