Pros

There are some good attributes to working for FedEx when you are part time. For example you will have 2 personals, 2 floating holidays, and 2 weeks vacation, 401k and health benefits.

Cons

I have worked at several locations at my current 11 years, and the one things that all of them have in common is that the ramp agents are abused on a daily basis. As a ramp agent your are responsible for running the sort and have almost 4 pages of job responsibilities for a whopping 15:85 an hour starting with a 30 cent raise every year. You are responsible for keeping handlers in line, but you can't fire or discipline them but you are responsible for their actions and held 100% accountable.

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
