I am in the final stages of being hired with CN so I thought I would check out some reviews. I was shocked by reading these posts as I always thought CN was a "dream" job. Great pay, benefits, and pension. My only concern was the balance between work and family as I have two young children. As I see working for CN is not the best if you value your family and personal life. After reading all these posts I will not be taking this position as I do value family and being treated with respect. I have two degrees and a great position right now that will do anything it can to ensure your family life is taken care of first. Truthfully I was exploring a cn career for the money but no money is worth what I have read here today. Thank you everyone helping not making a huge mistake. Who needs that level of stress? Life is too short!

I have worked in Walker yard for a few years now and have decided its time for me to leave.I wish you all the best if you get hired but always keep your options open.They are not the only game in town so dont worry if its not what you were hoping for. Just dont go and get to far in dept or your going to find your stress level will go through the roof. I havent had to many issues with CN but i've seen lots of people getting undeserved abuse at the hands of management. Good luck
