Pros

High pay for the job.

Cons

Poor management. In 8 years only one good manager. The rest had very condescending or contentious attitude towards their employees. Management programs to let couriers move up are a joke. They changed the programs names and details every 18 months. Management interviews were on a who knows who basis not based on experience, or attendance to these management trainee programs. Frequently the least competent but more connected couriers were put into management positions and then protected by senior management when they proved to be imcompetent.

Pros

Job security - senior management is committed to protecting jobs even in a down economy. FedEx is a leader in its industry, and has a strong brand. This results in a strong & proud corporate culture. My experience has been that ethical behavior is both expected and valued at FedEx.

Cons

FedEx is very bureaucratic. Turning the ship takes time. Raises are pretty low - it is difficult to move up in salary without getting promoted.

Pros

A company you can be proud of, gives superior service to customers, opportunities to grow a career and gain experience in variety and cutting edge tecnnology. I was able to work part time at FedEx while in college, made a very good wage and received health care! Other perks for working at FedEx allowed me to travel extensively on very little cost, all over the US, Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico, and Hawaii.

Cons

Very fast pace, always changing, very high expectations... to some, these are very much down sides. For me, I thrive on these attributes!!! With every company this size, you will end up running into some knuckle heads, but just keep on doing your best!
