Working at Norfolk Southern Railway in Maryland City, MD: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Maryland City, MD Area

"Its been a long 12 years here. Started off great despite the company never really caring for the employees. Work non stop and struggle to get vacation days approved most of the time. Then when business slows they start cutting...and cutting... The last 3 years have been horrible the company cuts jobs adds work to existing jobs changes schedules almost as if to just make them less appealing. Weird right? The people running this place care about stock prices thats it. Not the employees the customers or the public. Trains have doubled in size(to cut crews) the block public crossings much longer now. I like what I do but anything above middle management and even some of them could care less about employees. Now they want to pass covid mandates. In hopes they will lose people so they can push for 1 man crews. Which is not safe for the crew member or the public. They have "programs" running trains until it messes up or gets scared then it dumps it on to the actual engineer. You then have to fix the mistake in a time frame the computer decides its taking all the skill our men have away. You get fired for doing something you havent done because this system thinks you will. Even when you prove it wrong. Horrible place. Stay away"
