"When I started at Kansas City Southern, we were expected to be in the office every day. Since Covid, those whose jobs can be done remote are allowed to work from home. After only a few months, top level management was able to see that we are productive and shared that they trust us to be remote, thanking us for our dedication. "

"There is lots of opportunities in the Railroad industry. It's not the male dominated workforce that it may have once been. Women are respected and treated as equals. Your opinion, idea, or point of view is heard, understood, or has an impact, especially amidst competing voices."

"KCS is a very strong company with a rich history. Railroading is a backbone industry of the US and it is an exciting time to be part of it. KCS has made great strides in the past few years to promote diversity, equity and inclusion across all protected classes. Many women have been promoted into leadership positions and are performing at a very high level. KCS is striving to always be better and it is a great atmosphere. "
