Great Company for working your way to management by starting at the bottom

Business Outlook

Pros

You can direct your career in the direction you would like. You can start with FedEx as a Package Handle and become a Operation Manager in a period of 2 -3 years without a college degree. If you decided not to go to college you can work your way to Senior Management at FedEx without a college degree with good people skills and hard work. GREAT BENIFITS!

Cons

FedEx management it is very political. Progressing through the management ranks can be about who you know and if the right people like you. If the right people dont like you, your career is at a dead end. You have to hire into the company PART-TIME. This is a good place to start while in college.

Good job if you have no asiprations other than a paycheck. Those with ambition look elsewhere.

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexibility - Fedex is very casual and laid back. Unless you work in dot-com or other critial business areas you'll work 40 hours or less a week.

Cons

Politics, micromanagement, meetings - it depends on which area you work but getting ahead at FedEx is about who you know and who you network with at FedEx. The secret to getting ahead at FedEx is to make it your life, bleed orange and purple, be on your blackberry 24/7/365 to your mgrs. Excessive reporting on your activities. Each month I have 2 meetings with my director on project updates, monthly dashboard updates, weekly timekeeping and weekly project meetings. Anything less and you'll be branded a "cowboy" or not a team player. More time is spent on how you do things vs. getting the work done.
