Pros

When you first hire on, the Red carpet is rolled out.. Sooo glad to have you with the company..

Cons

After 6 months .. Let us count the ways on how to get rid you.. You just might even qualify for the FedEx freight extermination program.. If you have worked here long enough. Especially after 15 to 20 years. Your job is never secure and you can never work hard enough, or perfect enough.. We will find your flaw.. Did you memorize the employee hand book ? And all the policies ? They will use it against you.. And it's ok if you go punch out, and come back and finish that work you were doing.. That's being a team player..

Probably one of the most easiest/chill jobs you can get, plus you're driving a forklift.

Pros

• the pay is good for being part time • You get full time benefits while being part time, after 3 months. • The people you work with make the job that much easier on you • $0.50 raises every 3 months until you cap out • If you work hard enough you will get promoted within a year. That's if you are looking into FedEx for the long term. • Advice: don't over work yourself. Work smart and it will be a breeze.

Cons

• There will be some people that will make the job a little harder, don't mind them. • On some days you will get clocked out early because there won't be that much freight that day, most likely you will get more hours the next day so don't worry.
