No work/life balance. Squeeze everything out of employees for shareholders.

What does the leadership team need to get better at?

Valuing employees as well as shareholders

What makes you most happy at work?

My team is the best part of my job

What did you like most about the interview process?

They wine and dine for the interview process to draw you in.

What needs to change to make the company culture better?

BNSF leadership needs to actually apply the principles they espouse. Right now it's just lip service.

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

BNSF posts massive profits every year, even 2020. Despite this, the leadership has pushed a propaganda campaign over the last decade of the company always being on the verge of collapse. This then justifies them making massive cuts for "efficiency" and annual raises under the rate of inflation.

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?

BNSF employees are great but come from backgrounds with mindsets of bending over backwards for the company. I believe leadership specifically tries to hire people from outside BNSF that they deem for one reason or another to be able to pursue alternative employment. They take advantage of this.
