Pros

The only good thing about FedEx Express is the benifits and thats it. Medical, Dental, 401k, discounts, etc

Cons

There is alot but I will only mention the major ones. 1) Managment is lacking a connection to employees 2) The hourly pay for Handelers is crappy consirdering the fact that you are putting your body at risk. I vote an increase to 15.50 an hour and a mandatory minium of 22 hours a week for Part time handlers. 3) Getting additional hours is kinda hard sometimes. 4) TOO MANY RULES. 5) FedEX has not entered the 21 century, they still use time cards on paper and old time clocks, use computers and scan badges its easy. 6) No plan of advancing in the company. 7) they lie at orentation. 8) The work enviroment needs to be relaxed since we are putting are body at risk. 9) There is no Purple Promise. 10) Felt like a Slave at work.

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
