Pros

FEDEX has a no lay-off policy/mindset. In the current market downturn I have witnessed a commitment to this as my coworkers and I have kept our jobs. Instead FEDEX chose to cut some benefits and perks internally to lean levels. As profits have increased the benefits and some perks have returned. I have also witnessed an effort, from my stand point, to listen to employees and respond to suggestions and concerns.

Cons

I suppose it can be difficult to get more than 17 hrs a week as a part timer. I'm sure others will have more cons but honestly, the cons I consider are industry related and not Fedex specific. One example is package handling can be hard on the body, not FedEx's fault.

Pros

Easy to apply, fast to get hired (no interview process) and the pay

Cons

Very rude management, lack of care for safety, no drinkable water (all filters are in the red and have been since I started) They have cameras everywhere and are constantly watching you but say you can’t bring your own phone in because “people steal them”? There is junk everywhere. Lots of trash everywhere (employees drinks and food). They want you to work and eat on the line instead of giving you breaks to do so. They get upset when you use the bathroom or fill your water bottle even if you’ve been working for 3 hours straight but if you clock in at an area 2 min walking distance from your work area you’re “stealing time” I’ve noticed people of color get treated differently. The HR department has some of the most prejudice employees so there’s no real equality if you have conflict with someone. I’ve never been, but it feels like a prison to go in and out of the building and lastly you don’t work a consistent schedule. You leave when they say you can.
