FedEx Office reviews

Since Fedex bought out Kinkos, they've struggled with understanding how the printing industry works. Changes are constant within Fedex Office as Fedex tries to find what "works" and what doesn't. This a lot of times causes confusion and frustration for employees. Many veteran Kinkos employees quit within the first few years of the Fedex buyout and along with them went their talent. Many employees now do not know enough about printing which sometimes leads to problems with customers orders and redos.. Customers get frustrated and employees become unhappy. New hires are not given enough training in how to use the printers and all the equipment within the stores. Also, due to Fedex losing money with the Fedex Office division, they are cutting back everywhere they can. Stores cannot buy enough supplies to keep up with demand and every store is short staffed. That can be very frustrating for the staff and they cannot complete orders sometimes for customers due to the lack of supplies and staff. That also leads to customer frustration and low employee morale.

When things are not working well the job is hell. Management at two branches I worked at was completely ineffectual and incompetent. Pay varied wildly and had little to do with skill.
