Pros

Great hours for going to school during the day. Tuition reimbursement is annual at $3000. Health, vision and dental insurance is good for a student. Pay is good for the work and the hours. Overall, you work in a warehouse and your manager and team members make a huge difference in how enjoyable it can be; if you do not like your current crew just wait a few weeks and it will probably change.

Cons

limited growth, unless of course you want to be a manager or move to a different location. Almost all of the professional careers within fedex express are in memphis. Raises are not based on how hard you work or the quality of your work; they are based on how many times you were late over the past year. Many people use his job as a stepping stone. It is a great stepping stone because it is a solid job with great benefits (try to find more generous benefits for working part time).

Pros

One of the benefits they list to get you in the door is TOP RATE pay*. The top rate is currently unknown but general consensus is 20 years to top rate pay. If you love standing around making up stories in your own head for two hours while spreading rumors amongst your unabashed co-workers about other co-workers you’ve interacted 2 minutes in the year you’ve worked together then this job is for you! Minimal logic involved.

Cons

Fellow employees will unionize to get you out of your route. Employees will make up stories to pit employees against one another. Fellow employees will threaten other employees for being friendly to one another. The management is willing bend over backwards to give you a bad review if leaving for another job. Co-workers are extremely bored and in most cases workload differs dramatically depending on where you are on the sort.
