FedEx is a pretty good place to work.

Senior communications specialist

Business Outlook

Pros

It provides an excellent opportunity to use the communication skills developed over a career in the news business, but without the daily deadline pressure or hurried approach that can impact quality.

Cons

There are many layers of management; and it often seems that these people can be working at cross purposes. Also, because of the structure of the corporation into separate operating companies, communicators working in one area of the company may not be aware of things that are happening in another. And even though communications and marketing fall under the same umbrella, it's rare to have complete communication between the two groups.

Pushing for purple perfection

Senior account executive

Business Outlook

Pros

The brand is second to none, the service is second to none and the employees are second to none. Our customer are top priority from the janitors to the CEO. We all share the same vision and as a result we are able to focus on our customers. I would be willing to bet that if asked every single employee could tell you what their purpose is and why. I would also be willing to be that the answer would always end with a customer driven purpose. We know why we are here. It isnt about us.

Cons

It is a very long day. When you strive for perfection which the company and the employees do there are frustrating moments when something goes wrong. Weather, technology blips. We dont want unsatified customers. We are in the business of delivering packages not bad news. We have long days because we want the customer to be able to go home on time.

Pros

people come first - it is a family environment. They don't lay people off. They are commited to making everyone feel welcome. The pay is good and the work is challenging. Everyone is willing to help and no question asked is stupid. There are ample opportunities for growth and moving up in the organization. You write your own way - if there is something you want to do, they allow you the freedom to take on that challenge and make it your own all the while engaging you with the right individuals to help you excel. Everyone bleeds purple - company pride is apparent and infectious!

Cons

There are some groups which are not as friendly. Overall, this company is not as friendly as the last corporation where I was employed - I think this has to do with the international flavor of FedEx versus the last corporation where I worked most of the people were from the Southern US. It often takes a while to find out who the correct people are to be working with on any given project because the company is so gigantic and along with that comes an enormous amount of red tape from legal and those processes many times hold projects up for an unecessary amount of time.
