Pros

FedEx is an excellent brand name offering decent pay with fair benefits, paid time off, retirement, profit sharing. It is an excellent part time job while going to school and there are many advancement opportunities for those willing to move around.

Cons

Benefits have been greatly diluted over the years. The traditional retirement is gone, pay did not keep up with society, jumpseat priveleges were abandoned, pay for performance and other benefits were diluted. The people, service, profit cornerstone was abandoned for profit, profit, profit. Long term employees are greatly disillusioned by the company. Management does not support the workforce. No longer can you be assured of a job merely by being a conscientious hard worker.

Pros

Beat the traffic to and from work. You get a combination of active work walking around the warehouse and office work at a computer.

Cons

When express and ground merged, some of the admins decided they weren't going to do any of the new express tasks that needed to be done. Management either didn't seem to notice or did not care as they never intervened or addressed this disparity. A coworker with my same job title was in the air conditioned office all day, working on tasks that were not a priority while I was getting slammed with work that was required for my position. If that is what management wanted, that is fine. But it was never addressed to the team. Management doesn't address or care about these things as long as someone does it.
