The Raw Truth about FedEx

Senior marketing specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

FedEx has the best work-life balance policy I've ever seen.

Cons

No growth opportunities outside of Memphis. FedEx has the least prepared leadership I've ever seen because they promote from within only behavioral questions are asked. Experience and expertise mean nothing. You could have no experience in any given functional department but end up leading that department. I've never seen anything like it. It a comedy of errors.

Its a job if you’re desperate, or able bodied and bored

Package handler

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Disorganized management makes it an easy job to keep if you show up. If you set strong boundaries and defend yourself you don’t have to overwork yourself. They rarely fire over making rate, especially if you show up on time and do the job, even if you’re not that good at it. Some managers are cool but usually play favorites, maybe you could make a friend ….

Cons

People in management are miserable, personally and professionally. They will abuse your rights if they can get away with it, and some of them are sadistic people who look down on everyone below them on the totem pole. They use an app to schedule shifts and change scheduled shifts constantly, creating unpredictable work hours that are disrespectful and inconvenient. They squeeze everything they can out of people who are willing to work, and understaff the building on purpose to save money (nothing new). This job is only worth it if you know not to care, always to report injuries and document EVERYTHING, and so long as you remember that they don’t value anyone, not even loyalty, hard work, or valuable experience.
