Pros

FedEx is a safe place to work; if you show some initiative and work for them, you will not lose your job, so it is very secure.

Cons

Boring, behind the times, stuck in their ways, you'll never change anything or add fresh ideas that would help the company. The company is led by out of touch people who listen to the wrong people. Dataworks leadership is the worst on the planet. FedEx is doing everything wrong and, for the sake of those working there, I hope FedEx can stagger along and provide jobs for its employees, but the smart modern business people who leave FedEx are creating startups that are draining the company's digital revenue streams. FedEx may be going the way of Blockbuster, Service Merchandise, and Tower Records. USPS and Amazon will bleed FedEx and their backwards ways.

Pros

Great flexibility with scheduling, which makes it incredibly easy to balance with school or other external commitments. The team environment is supportive, and the management generally respects your availability

Cons

The physical workload can be quite demanding and tiring, especially during peak seasons. Depending on the shift, communication across different teams can sometimes feel a bit unorganized.

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.
