Pros

If you want to make a difference, FedEx will allow you that opportunity. Embracing the Purple Promise is a way of life. The company is dedicated to quality, although their HR Departments and Global Dispersing Departments have never embraced QDM. Pay is very good as long as you start at a high salary. Salary increases are 100% formula driven, no exceptions unless they see a signed offer letter from elsewhere. Once hired, you're in as long as you want. FedEx rewards loyalty.

Cons

FedEx rewards loyalty above EVERYTHING else; so, being a naysayer will get you minimized and set aside very quickly. Leadership doesn't walk the talk. Mailbox is full of Purple Kool-Aid, of which the upper leadership does not believe it applies to them. If you are not an officer or director, you are a commodity can be replaced, but they won't hire you. If you are not loyal, they will make you want to quit. I cannot tell you the number of times annual bonus were reduced or eliminated for managers and below, only to later find out officers and directors received full or greater bonuses. It has gotten so bad that FedEx stop explaining the rules for how the bonus is determined, so that will stop appearing as liars.

Pros

Flexibility, benefits, work life balance, vacation days, nice corporate environment.

Cons

Many of the processes at Fed Ex Are complex and need to be leaned out. Getting anything approved seems to take forever. Managers still like to get involved in day-to-day work and many of them won’t allow the teams to shine, instead they want the visibility of the team success on them.
