Biggest employer in town

Pros

The company is very good in providing employees with a work-life balance. FedEx is also pretty competitive when it comes to regional salaries go, but on a national scale, they might not be very well-paying.

Cons

Career advancement at FedEx is not very easy. There's a lot of the "good old boy" mentality, where you have to know someone, OR you have to meet a certain quota to get ahead.

Pros

Good pay for the industry. New hires will find they are on a pay schedule that differs from those who have been there for a while. Use to be topped out in three years and new schedule will take around nine years. Technicians will find the work interesting as the fleet is varied with B727, B757, MD10, MD11, A300, A310 and B777 aircraft. Bottom line if you can handle the odd working hours and days, see below, then FedEx express may be a great place to work.

Cons

For weekends off you will have to work grave yard shift. Day shift has odd days off, (M-W) or rotating days off with four day weekend (Fri to Mon) every other week. Advancement in the management ranks is definitely more about who you know than what you know. Memphis TN, Is an okay area to live but has limited culture and variety. Education for primary schools is okay in certain outlying communities. If you are coming from a major city be prepared to deal with limited dinning and outing experiences.

Pros

This type of work is perfect for a secondary job or a college student.

Cons

The rigidity of the environment makes working there taxing sometimes. Also, it can be tough following the archaic vacation scheduling process that makes no sense whatsoever.
