Pros

Good solid company, with benefits. Company provides great service to its customers. No layoff policy.

Cons

I have been working at FedEx for 22 years. When I first started the company provided very good compensation to its employees. Frequent pay raises, pro-pay, profit sharing, low cost, high quality healthcare benefits. However, for the past 10 or so years, they have gotten away from their core philosophies of People-Service-Profits, or PSP. It is now the other way around, where Profit comes first and People last. Year over year they have lowered the amounts of our raises, increased the premiums of their healthcare (blaming it on Obamacare), decreased overtime hours. Which translates to a lower paycheck year over year. This is a perfect example of the disparity of the wages between the middle class and the rich. While their compensation has steadily increased year over year, ours have stagnated or decreased. We are the front line employees, who through our hard work and dedication are the backbone of this company, we are FedEx!

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
