Pros

FedEx has good benefits and is diverse - at least in some larger markets. There is a lot of opportunity for training and continuing your education, etc.

Cons

Job promotion - it is all politics ... poor performers are often promoted. People get promoted because they go to church with someone, I'm not kidding. So, unless you go to church with a VP - forget it - you won't get the job.

Pros

Satisfaction from serving our customers, and their appreciation. Fairly decent pay and benefits.

Cons

Lack of appreciation for tenured employees. Too much negative feedback, very little positive feedback. Unrealistic, "manufactured" goals. GFTP and open door policies are merely procedures in place to give the appearance fairness, when they simply serve as management tools to further management agenda and goals.

Pros

Upper management in Portland, OR is very interested in developing those below them. Medical benefits are great. Job security is very high for a manager as long as one does not date package handlers, maintains one's integrity, and shows up every day with a good attitude. Every day is a little different, but similar enough that one can learn how to perform the job. If one can survive at FedEx, one can thrive anywhere: it's good training.

Cons

The work is intense and demands a wide range of soft skills, mostly in the areas of dealing with people and solving problems. The last few years, the company has not paid out bonuses that were earned.
