Pros

I gained a lot of experience in how to communicate with clients who don't understand computers or have the vocabulary to express their needs for printing or graphics, so I learned how to lead them and ask the right questions to find out exactly what they need, and FedEx Office's training (which is very good) gives an excellent grounding in how to do this.

Cons

The combination of fast digital printing and express shipping means that your job at FedEx Office is to fix it when other people have failed to do their job. And if it isn't possible to fix it, or if the customer comes in not understanding that 24-hour turn-around is expensive, they will get pissed off and take it out on the person behind the counter. There are some very nice people who come in to the store, but the rude, aggressive, unreasonable people are much, much louder, and it is easier for a single event to create a 'bad day' than to create a 'good day'.

Pros

Have a Strong staff and great customers -for the most part. Don't see my boss but 1-2 month.

Cons

The corp fluff to accomplish something. Setting all these goals and targets then forget about 90% until it's time to do the yearly "anonymous" survey. Then you see which stores had how many surveys done. 🙄 Keep it short and sweet it would be more effective. Have outstanding customer service but don't do anything personal in your store to recognize your customers. Be different but don't show it 😂 Working for Amazon now with no more pay. It benefits the store not us in our paychecks. At times unrealistic expectations with a high volume store and a staff of 4-5.
