What are your thoughts?

I find this place great for venting, however, all these complaints will not change the situation at UP. This company has never cared for its employees and we should not expect it to suddenly start caring for us now. What I can change is the company I... — read more

Oh boy! I don’t know about you, but I could use the recognition of a decent contract the would make it worth coming to work for this shithole of a company! Trinkets are great and everything but I’ve thrown everything in my house that has Uprr on it... — read more

Nothing surprises me anymore in this company. Do you think the situation will get worse when it comes to cheating and stealing?

Did they have a derailment in the LA trench lately, the area of all the thefts and looting of trains ? Any known cause of it ?

I would love to go hang out at hotel parking lots during hiring sessions and gather up prospective applicants and let them know the truth of how bad it is and to run away from the interview.

In the 80's there were 40 RR bulls in my terminal. They worked O/T arrested people daily for stealing, vandalism, and removed alot of trespassers daily. Somewhere almost 10 years ago there was only 5 of em. Today I think there are only 3. Now they... — read more

This is what I say to everyone who intends to apply to UP - you will become a stranger to your friends and family because work-life balance will be almost non-existent. At least that's how it is now, but I believe that those who have been working... — read more

I found the thread below interesting where someone says that they've been getting criticized more than usual lately. I have been criticized since the day one here. It’s the UP way to squeeze people to the max.

Yesterday was one of those days when it was no longer clear to me what UP wanted from me. Maximum workload, work-life balance non-existent, pay disappointing etc. I'm not complaining because anyone can leave if they want. I do my work and keep... — read more 

Hey. We all survived the Jan 8th shot date and still have job at UP.

I just accepted a position as a apprentice freight car repair. I quit my job for this. I was making 90 thousand a year plus bonuses and worked 4 10s. Did I make a mistake?

Working in Fresno is like a soap opera. The manager kissed his way to the top and my foreman likes to lie all the time.

I'll be honest, I can't find a better job because I don't have enough skills. I stagnated here because I only thought about paying the bills and less about growing a skillset that would help me get out of here one day. Now I would like to make up... — read more
