Constant deadlines require a sense of urgency and the ability to think on your feet.
Pros
Excellent benefits. The benefits used to be slightly better, but FedEx cannot be blamed for higher costs being charged to them. Health care expenses are constantly rising. Great pay if you are willing to stay at FedEx for the long haul. Ability to apply for other positions around the U.S. Above average job security if you do your job well. FedEx goes out of its way to not lay people off when times are bad.
Cons
The facility is in dire need of an extreme makeover. The employee parking lot is littered with garbage. Seagulls circle around looking for a meal. I feel like I'm making a trip to the county dumps. Getting promoted can be a slow process. Employee turnover is higher at the bottom and lower as the rank increases. This results in having to wait until people transfer or retire to be promoted within. This is a physically demanding job and not for everyone. Extra trucks or flights can require employees to work overtime which may or may not be desirable. Recognition is average. It could be better, but most people that go above and beyond are eventually recognized for their hard work.
