Pros

Good benefits package. New employees start with two weeks paid vacation. The medical insurance package is fairly good too. I've heard that the annual bonus program is better than average, but I have yet to see that due to a downturn in business. The annual raise is 2-4%. I enjoy my coworkers as well.

Cons

New hire training was non existent. I spend more time dealing with the "system" than I do writing code. We have tons and tons of paperwork to complete. The system is very rigid at FedEx. Recently we were told that we needed to work at least 45 hours per week.

Pros

Great pay for the area. I am very happy with how I am treated at FedEx. FedEx has a pension plan that is very nice. The pension plan is a portable pension plan, which means I keep it even if I leave the company; however, I have no plans to leave. The IT market in Memphis is very poor right now. I feel lucky to be at FedEx during such hard times. Hilton, Internation Paper, Service Master, and Harrah's Entertainment all seems to making big cut backs, including layoffs. It seems that the only IT jobs left in Memphis are contract jobs.

Cons
