Haven't laid off all of 2022, but I did today to spend time with loved ones. Happy New Years everyone be safe out there.

Hungry cows and chickens at Foster Farms on West coast.Up not delivering trains on schedule to keep animals fed. Their complaint is going to STB .

Most of my former colleagues who left didn't leave primarily because of higher pay, but because they couldn't stand the terrible management that unnecessarily created frustrating situations. I believe that unprofessional management is the number... — read more 

There are other such companies, UP is not the only one. However, it is hard to believe that a company doesn't care about its employees as much as it is the case at UP. We are not an asset for them, just an expense. Perhaps I'm exaggerating, but... — read more 

I saw on the Up online expediter video ,they say it took conductor 45 minutes to walk 69 cars. How can that be true?

I recommend everyone else do the same to be safe and also enjoy time with your families. They wouldn't let me lay off weather so i said just mark me off sick. better safe than sorry. the how matters.

Be ethical. Only directors and executives are allowed to be unethical! Now back to work you peasant!!

One of the main reasons why most decide to stay at UP for a while longer is because they are counting down to retirement. However, how wise is that? I still have a few years left until retirement and I must admit that I am constantly worried about... — read more 

Anybody watch the hearings ? Wanted to know what were some of the best questions asked. Did you see any rr person squirm in their seat and get nervous answering questions?

To me quiet quitting is saying nothing and just leaving! Why do anymore work if you've already given up? I don't see how continuing to do work for a company can be considered quitting. I was never into the softer language that helps people deal with... — read more 

It is crystal clear that those at the top do not care about us in the least, but only about profit and stockholders. I don't think it's really sustainable, because if the remaining good workers leave and it's not easy to replace them, how will they... — read more 

Does anyone working at UP get matching $ when the invest in their 401k fund ?

Y'all ready to be on ground and cover a territory and shift work? Engineers ready to be by themselves??

Quiet quitting refers to doing the minimum requirements of one’s job and putting in no more time, effort, or enthusiasm than absolutely necessary. As such, it is something of a misnomer, since the worker doesn’t actually leave their position and... — read more

I nominate the closed BrazosTx. yard project as the biggest waste of money on the UP system. Project was going like gang busters and almost finished.Along came PSR and yard was not used.

Get ready to be sold out again . More one man yard crews coming soon. They can't get the work done efficiently enough now , but for the sake of cutting more jobs it will happen. Fritz loves you all , he might even make another video.

But did anyone else have managers stand over their employees shoulders and watch them while they did the employee engagement survey? I thought it was supposed to be anonymous and confidential.

Read the news that several activist investors groups that own UP and or BNSF stock are promoting paid sick leave, bring up sick days proposed in stock ownership meetings. Think it was a story in Reuters news.

So it's been a few years into your PSR agenda, and let's take some time to reflect on what's been accomplished. All levels of management are guilty of it. So if you're a manager that trolls this site, listen up! The UP started its PSR business... — read more

Union leader's will fold like a soft napkin. Let's sit back and watch.
