The job security is best...the compensation is good enough...though the kind of work I did needed lot of time and effort..higher authorities can be a bit more appreciative about the work..about career growth, it's a bit monotonous, and a bit corrupted...so if job security is you main motto, you should join railways..

Nobody appreciates if you do better work then others..there is a bit elitism in railways, where the higher management authoritative poeple are given everything, and the working force is treated like daily wage workers...it can be better...everyone is working hard, so everyone should be treated equally..
