Pros

Great starting out pay, great benefits, promotes from within company. Secure job with constant growth. Top 100 on forbes for companies to work for in. Tuition reimbursment towards college. Benefits start after 90 days, even for part-time employees.

Cons

I really do not see many cons in this company. Just maybe the time it take to get from part-time to full time.

Pros

FedEx is ...very big... on nudging employees to increase their knowledge-base. This action is required because the firm has sophisticated financial modeling tools that rely on its incredibly huge data-base, which covers its customer's shipping habits, and the corresponding costs. One example: An Services Department employee needs to become pretty well schooled with SQL and other database management tools. FedEx offers a number of "live" training classes in addition to on-line-based coursework, which greatly helps the employee develop or fine-tune code-writing skills.

Cons

Required training session, either live or taught on-line, are often a big time-sink. This, particularly when the school session occurs during a workday. Project deadlines always loom, so the required training classwork... in a live classroom setting... can materially eat-away at a productive day. The on-line based training programs, particularly with database management, can be very arduous... the text-based product MUST BE VERY CLOSELY READ in order to move-up to the next module. A live training class would offer hands-on help quickly vs. a website-session that might require the student hours to catch-on to the same topic. However, the live classes are traditionally only during the workday. I suggest offering evening and weekend "live" training sessions... particularly when it involves learning how to effectively use powerful but high degree of difficulty tools... like SQL.
