Pros

home daily, overtime after 8 hours, newer trucks, great benefits and paid every week. FedEx Freight seems like a great company to work for and you can make a lot of money IF you have been with the company for upteen years

Cons

SENIORITY SENIORITY SENIORITY! First starting off as a City Driver you will get less than 8 hours a day which really sucks, YOU WILL NOT MAKE GOOD MONEY FIRST STARTING OFF expect to work 6-7 hours a day, a lot of racism and favoritism from dispatch and managers, you have to work the dock just to get your full 8 hours.
