Pros

Good hours/ benefits, flexible vacation time, employee discounts (airline, car purchase), workload is not difficult if you have any kind of good work ethic/ intelligence

Cons

Promotions only available to IT-type people or if you kiss up to the manager, project work/ performance review system is a joke, same mundane job day in and day out, no working from home because certain people abused the privelege so now nobody can do it, incompetent management/ director, too many "lifers" that can't carry their own workload - but they are not reprimanded or fired, everyone gets the same 3% raise every year - regardless of performance, if you are a productive worker - you get rewarded with MORE WORK, and you get to do the lifer's work since they don't care to do it.

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.
