Pros

Excellent benefits. The benefits used to be slightly better, but FedEx cannot be blamed for higher costs being charged to them. Health care expenses are constantly rising. Great pay if you are willing to stay at FedEx for the long haul. Ability to apply for other positions around the U.S. Above average job security if you do your job well. FedEx goes out of its way to not lay people off when times are bad.

Cons

The facility is in dire need of an extreme makeover. The employee parking lot is littered with garbage. Seagulls circle around looking for a meal. I feel like I'm making a trip to the county dumps. Getting promoted can be a slow process. Employee turnover is higher at the bottom and lower as the rank increases. This results in having to wait until people transfer or retire to be promoted within. This is a physically demanding job and not for everyone. Extra trucks or flights can require employees to work overtime which may or may not be desirable. Recognition is average. It could be better, but most people that go above and beyond are eventually recognized for their hard work.

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.
