Pros

Good hours/ benefits, flexible vacation time, employee discounts (airline, car purchase), workload is not difficult if you have any kind of good work ethic/ intelligence

Cons

Promotions only available to IT-type people or if you kiss up to the manager, project work/ performance review system is a joke, same mundane job day in and day out, no working from home because certain people abused the privelege so now nobody can do it, incompetent management/ director, too many "lifers" that can't carry their own workload - but they are not reprimanded or fired, everyone gets the same 3% raise every year - regardless of performance, if you are a productive worker - you get rewarded with MORE WORK, and you get to do the lifer's work since they don't care to do it.

Less FTE and more offshore vendors. Less time to collaborate Headquartered and majority of roles centralized in Memphis Less FTE means sometimes you are expected to wear multiple hats aside of your primary responsibilities Some processes are very lengthy(Example- Release, code reviews etc) Immigration delays- If you are a foreign national

Pros

Beat the traffic to and from work. You get a combination of active work walking around the warehouse and office work at a computer.

Cons

When express and ground merged, some of the admins decided they weren't going to do any of the new express tasks that needed to be done. Management either didn't seem to notice or did not care as they never intervened or addressed this disparity. A coworker with my same job title was in the air conditioned office all day, working on tasks that were not a priority while I was getting slammed with work that was required for my position. If that is what management wanted, that is fine. But it was never addressed to the team. Management doesn't address or care about these things as long as someone does it.
