BNSF Railway Team Employee Reviews

What are some of the best things about your team?

They know how to do their job

Review from Operations Dept

Focused on the right things

Ability to work as a group, and their skill level.

They lesson and care about you

We know our jobs well and trust our coworkers to work safley, but their are some bad ones you try to avoid.

It depends on where your office is but we 90% of my local office has between 10-41 years of experience and are willing to share and help.

The people you work with are professional. And most of them are decent to work with.

Alot of us care about our brothers and sisters of the rail industry. I have never met or worked with such awesome and intelligent people. They care not only for you but for there job. Alot of them really want ro do what's right here

Work well together and everyone gets along.

Crews are great. We love the job but hate how we're treated.

Review from Operations Dept

We are all on the same page. They make work safe, fun and entertaining and they are all good hard workers.

Good people to work with

Best people I've ever worked with hands down. They are the only thing keeping me there.

The everyday person that shows up just wants the same thing everyone else does. A paycheck and maybe a little dignity

We talked mostly about how to get the job done safely and how to make it home to our family without injury

Review from Operations Dept

Just the TY&E employees are good.

Review from Operations Dept

There is no team, carrier wishes we didn’t exi

This question has nothing to do with this job

Review from Operations Dept

We have built bonds through trauma

The people are knowledgeable with varying levels of experience

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

Cut worthless meetings and be prepared when there are meetings

They need leadership who can step up and hold people accountable and more compensation

Communication must be better at times

At first I thought they were jerks, now I know its a mixture of no sleep, no family time, and a few jerks

Having managers/CEO's be honest would he a great start. Most people dont appreciate being lied to and stolen from. They violate our agreements daily.

Common this line of questions is pure bs

A better work life balance would probably help with everyone's attitude

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.

Review from Engineering Dept

Coworkers are great. Management needs to change

They are fine management is bad

Better training. Better management. A better ceo

We all need better time off.

Review from Operations Dept

there unhappy with company. all they do is complain about company

Again being transparent and managers not dividing the rmployees

Actually need to have employees half to work there, and not just for the money

Moral is low due to management being so hard on employees

It’s not them. It’s leadership. They are putting people in place that have no

Review from Engineering Dept

We don't have meetings... We have sessions where local management tells us we are useless and worthless.

Review from Operations Dept

The micro managing is driving the moral into the ground
