Business Outlook

Pros

Dock work at FedEx freight is a 'Get in and get it done' type of job. You clock in and get to work, when everything is done everyone goes home. This type of job is great for young people out of high school or starting college who need an income without many prerequisites, or someone looking for a semi-flexible second job for some extra income.

Cons

At FedEx Freight the 'Get in and get it done' atmosphere often leads to disengaged employees who are also not very informed on company policy or news. Also the freight industry is subject to the ebb and flow of the economy leading to freight levels being very low in some months and very high the next. This often leads to cut hours for part time workers during low times, and extra work for part time workers during high freight levels. A solid predetermined schedule is sometime difficult to determine under some circumstances.
