Pros

Great starting salary, benefits such as medical, dental, and a portable pension to take with you when you retire.

Cons

Management are under intense pressure, which makes supervisors, put pressure onto the employees. Takes a long time to move up the ladder. Nowadays, FedEx Express is making it very hard to think about retiring in 25 years: Your body will not last that long! and you will suffer with body pain immensely as you get older and in older age! My advice to anybody who wants to work for these companies such as FedEx, U.S.P.S., UPS, or DHL, as a courier, is to go speak to these guys who deliver to you or your company. They will tell you, "You Do Not Want This Job!"

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.
