Pros

Fed Ex has good benefits and a good hourly wage. $22.43 per hour top out, after three years

Cons

Hours have been cut drastically, Im only working 10-15 hours per week. Fred Smith CEO of Fed Ex took a 20% pay cut out of his 1.5 million dollas salary, but he gets 24 milion per year in stock options. Bu cutting overhead Managers 5 - 10% pay cut and hourly employees ny some 50- 80% cut in pay by reduction of hours worked. The stock will go up and his 20% salary reduction will be offset and even gain him more by the reduction in expenses creating a more attractive stock price to shareholders which in turn protects upper level senior managements stock options and secures thier retirement nest eggs while us guys and gals at the bottom get our 401k match cancelled for a year! along with no cost of living increases or pay raises!, but we should still come in work hard for the 10 - 15 hours and feel great about the company??

Pros

Stable company and good pay for part time work. There is a casual dress code. Pay is fixed by position and normally there is an increase every spring. Part time work does offer contributing to the 401K.

Cons

A little lack of communication from management. Part time work does not pay holidays and vacation pay does not even start accruing till after one full year. I think you accrue about 15 hours a year. Evening work does not guarantee a certain amountof hours. Since the pay scale is fixed all employees in your same job title receive the same pay.

Pros

You can put on your resume that you worked at a company with great global brand recognition.

Cons

At least in the Freight business unit, the company management still works on the "good ol' boy" network, and it's roots in the Arkansas company FedEx bought still shows every day. Cutting edge people from progressive companies may fing working at FXF a bit like going back in time. People have been fired for making "red neck jokes" as management thinks the joker is making fun of HQ in Arkansas. Many senior managers lack BA/BS degree
