Pros

Good benefits, pension plan, vacation, competitive base salary, stability, corporate discounts everywhere, fair vacation/time off, flexibility, car allowance, work from home, make your own schedule, free cell phone, free lap top, and great car allowance plus mileage.

Cons

FedEx is the definition of corporate america. You are nothing but a number and there are 360,000 employees. If you are looking for a sales job, this job is not for you. I spend 80% of my time dealing with non sales issues such as invoice adjustments, tracking packages, software issues, pricing not loaded correctly, ect and 20% of my time selling. I have been screwed so many times out of bonuses when I bring on an account that is "incorrectly aligned" or does not spend enough money to meet adjustment criteria. This job looks great on your resume but long term you will realize you spend majority of your time dealing with problems not selling. But to be fair, it's not that bad if you learn how to play the games and train your customers to utilize the customer service department instead of calling your cell phone every time they have a problem.

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.
