Pros

Benefits, ability to transfer, you are typically not micromanaged.

Cons

Senior executives don't have a clue what goes on in the field. They do not listen to needs of the field and the task saturation is overwhelming. Too many balls to juggle and not enough arms. There are two many metrics being looked at and ones you are being held accountable to.

Pros

Centers throughout the country, so there's flexibility if you need to move. Team members are great.

Cons

If you really care, the job will kill you. At every moment you are ranked, rated, micromanaged, overtasked and grossly underpaid. No matter how well you are doing, you are always made to feel like you are a failure. The company purports People First, but does not live by that core value. There is a serious disconnect between senior leadership and the field. This serious shortfall, in getting the pulse of the people and taking the best from the people who know best, is running the company into the ground. They preach an open door policy, but don't practice it.

Pros

Excellent benefits; reasonable management opportunities

Cons

FedEx has essentially deformed the "copy shop around the corner" into a hemorrhaging acronym-laden abomination. Employees are paid far too little considering the knowledge required to adequately perform all expected duties. Prior to last summer you could expect a revolving door of coworkers, only now the door traffic flows in one direction due to a nationwide hiring freeze. What was already a lukewarm staff serving a hyper-stressed, deadline driven clientele of business professionals is now a skeleton crew barely keeping the counter line hordes at bay. Expect no assistance from upper management. Instead of focusing on reducing turnover, cutting costs and recognizing productive employees, corporate office prefers to focus on where to place staplers and rubber bands, or the correct way in which to place sheet after sheet of unnecessary job information drivel in customer orders. Endless reports and metrics with names like "SQI" and "VOC" tell each store just how miserably they are failing, and monthly district manager visits give one a sense of just how quickly this ship is sinking.
